Hi Peter,

Thanks for the post. Would you mind explaining your comment that the telescopes 'don't work at all' (genuine question, not meaning to be smart)? As I explained in my original post I was thinking there might be some value even in an el-cheapo model (as a newbie I've got plenty to learn, especially the basics which would now be second nature to you old hands). But of course if a <$100 scope doesn't even produce an image then of course I'd be better off saving up for something usable for twice the price.

I'll keep the 'wanted' ad in mind, thanks, although I'll have to wait 30 days before I can post (I'm not in a rush, though; still plenty to learn on this site ).

Cheers,

M.
