I taught in Canberra from 1974 to 1984 and regularly used my 3" Equatorial Unitron with interested parents and students on planned astronomy evenings. It proved to be an ideal telescope in terms of setup and size as it performed very well on planets, clusters and double stars. I still have it and in fact must at least a couple of others around the house somewhere.
