taks

Matt, I have a TSA 120. Its a thing of beauty. I have a Tak FS 60 riding on it and I have the TCF-S focuser. I have it mounted on a CGEM which sometimes I get the impression on this forum that this is like a Faberge egg on a plywood Bunnings work top! ( I do have a G11 I am still learning to use and an EQ 6 missing, no further comments there required)
Seriously though I have loved this scope since buying it from IIS and have used no others, although that has not stopped me collecting a few "just in case"
Even my Meade series 5000 APO refractor with Moonlite focuser as been left in the study to read books.
I don't know about comparisons with other similar scopes. I know since owning it haven't used my two big reflectors (too big for my pod) or my other smaller refractors.
I knew as a child when we cleared my Grandpa's shed out and found Spitfire bits and WWII booty that I would be a collector/never throw anything away. Hence the excess of glass. But I can't see me selling my Taks.
Anyone ever heard of an erector prism for the Tak finder?

Cheers

Graham
