I don't have the physical space for a full size tripod, on the patio/balcony of my flat, so I use tabletop gear as that gives me more space behind the scopes.
I got my RAO 50x500 tabletop frac from Doolsduck, when he put it up for sale back in September last year. It's a brilliant little scope.
I haven't had a chance to see Jupiter and Saturn, yet, this year in any of my scopes.
Jupiter, Saturn, and Mars, look like being in their best spot for viewing, at about 2:30am, April 7. Bleah. Ugly hour to have to be awake for.
