+1 for the BST's , great all round EP's in my opinion, and they dont break the bank.

Great report, Glad you enjoyed our dark Exmoor skies.

Great report, i dont own any decent filters yet, but if i read many more reports like this , i could see my wallet opening up sooner or later.

Sounds like you had a great session at the eyepiece, Well done.

Hi Richard, welcome to the lounge.

Welcome to the lounge.

Welcome to the lounge.

Ive been wondering about SVBony myself, id like to replace the plastic focuser on my 130p, they sell an all metal newt focuser SV181, its only £40 on ebay, does anyone have experience of this focuser, is it any good?

It took just moments to align , ive never adjusted a secondary before, everything has come into perfect alignment now. Many Thanks Folks.

Will give it a go, Many thanks folks.

Hi Folks, Having watched a film about collimation caps recently, I thought I'd check the collimation on my starquest 130p I've taken a pic through the cap hoping that you can advise on what you can see, the primary clamps appear to be where they should , hopefully indicating that the secondary mirror is aligned ok, but the rest of the image seems to show the primary needs collimating, how do you collimate a fixed mirror, thanks in advance of any advice given.

Welcome to the lounge, there is a wealth of information here, have fun fine tuning your knowledge.
