Actually, it occurs to me that this little picture and story reinforces a point that can't be made too often (and I wish I'd paid more attention to it when I purchased my gear): spend much more on the mount than on the telescope. This was a 30 yo scope that can be bought new now from AstroShop for $245. On top of a mount more than ten times that price.
