Yay! Finally have a niceish refractor...

Just picked up a WO Megrez 90mm, Vixen Porta mount and a few eyepieces for about $700. Seems like a really good deal to me.

Ive found that I have been getting out less and less (especially with all this rain) with my HEQ5 and C8 - just too much mucking about getting setup, and then getting packed up again

Always good to have a grab n go to supplement the big scope (especially here) and you've got a fantastic little setup there
