Portable Gear

Hey guys, I have been thinking for a while that I would like a portable setup, in addition to my G11 and RC10. It's a bit too big to move around and get in the car etc....

I was thinking an EQ5 GOTO, and maybe a small refractor like a Black Diamond ED80 or something.

The only refractor I have ever used was my first telescope, a Tasco from the early 90's. I have no idea what is good these days, and what the optical quality is like?

I'm budgeting around the $2000 mark. Any advice?
Erik
