Flt 110 Apo

[bluescope]

Hi All

I didn't intend for this thread to become a slagging match about Andrews but suffice to say I was promised an email contact address and it wasn't forthcoming from Lee after waiting for a week. I then enquired with Cris at Astronomy Alive and had immediate response and a better price for total package that I bought.

I was just a customer wanting service !

I am very satisfied with my new scope and the service I received .... end of story.

Hows the viewing going with the new scope

Nice scope Steve. I considered the FLT132 a while back, but have gone down the Tak path instead. While I say that though, I still have my Megrez 80 and love it to death. Mechanically it probably rivals the Taks I have, and if the focusers were apples for apples instead of RP's for crayfords, it'd come down to a preference in glass.

In their price range I reckon William Optics have it in the bag as far as sheer desirability goes. Great scope - have fun with it!

Very nicely thanks Trevor ..... haven't done a lot ..... tried to do some imaging last night but neighbours decided to have a bonfire and I ended up with a sore throat from the acrid smoke that billowed across my observatory so I gave up ..... bar stewards !
