Bob, Just curious. What made you decide on the Celestron vs Meade??? Rick Tejera Editor SACnews Saguaro Astronomy Club Phoenix, Arizona Well, I've done my part. I purchased a NexStar 8-inch GPS scope so that I wouldn't have to haul my 16-inch, F/5 Dob everywhere I go. I was assured, by the seller, that the new scope was packed with moistons, but suspect I've been cheated as there hasn't been a trace of rain for days. Any other ideas will be welcome. /Bob --------------------------------------------------------------- "I do not feel obliged to believe that the same God who has endowed us with sense, reason, and intellect has intended us to forgo their use." - Galileo Galilei --------------------------------------------------------------- Bob Erdmann - Core Team Member & Webmaster The NGC/IC Project - http://www.ngcic.org e-mail: boberdmann@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx -- This message is from the AZ-Observing mailing list.
