    Welcome from another welsh member.

    I have a flexi tube 130p and happy with the views of Jupiter it gives me, but..... A friend lent me a eyepiece over the easter weekend which was of a far better quality than those supplied with my scope, and i have to say that the views were far far better, I now need to upgrade my eyepieces after using my mates.

    I bought a pair of Praktica 10 x 50 from argos the other week in a sale for £25, very pleased with them as well.

    I. Bought this scope in January, so far only added a good quality Barlow. Will get a few decent eyepieces but that's all for now. If I keep my interest going I will add, but waiting to see how things go first. And as others have said, it's a great little scope.

    Never thought of alcohol as it's so cold, maybe the summer will temt me to have a drink and a watch.

    Since I bought my scope at the end of January :-(
  12. nederman63
    Well done you, I would have taken the easy option and taken it back :-)

    It seems most of you have a mixture then. Do you use them for different viewings?
  14. nederman63
    2 (or more) scopes! Have you got 1 reflecting and 1 refracting telescope, or 2 the same.

    So 10. X 42 or. 10. 50 are used for astronomy viewing! I have been thinking about this, anything that helps out when your starting off must be a bonus. I am struggling to get this sky map sorted, and been thinking of getting some bins to help me locate objects a bit easier.

    When you start off on this hobby, by that I mean locating objects for the first time/helping you to point your scope in the right direction. I realise that a finderscope is for this reason, but was wondering if a pair of bins help when looking for dimmer stars which may be hard to spot by the naked eye, or am I being daft.

    I tried for all of ten minutes, even my dog stayed inside

    I find it good on my android phone, and my tablet

    I'm looking at eyepieces because I'm feeling sorry for myself. A clear night would cheer me up though.

    Very happy with my galaxy tab

    Since joining here I have read a lot about poor scopes, and have taken it all in, but what about good scope manufacturers, is there a definite list anywhere? I have seen loads of scopes about for sale, and half of them I have never heard of, so I was wondering what are the best manufacturers out there.

    Hello, hope you enjoy your new hobby and get some clear skies
  23. nederman63
    Another yes from me, since I bought it a month ago I have only had a few clear skies, but what I have seen has been good. And I am thinking like you, if my initial drive wanes I.I can sell it, or keep it as a portable scope. Enjoy your sky viewing whatever you buy.
  24. nederman63
    It is a great little scope, and a bit of oil helps it along a treat.

    Well done, if I had not stumbled across this forum I would be one of those who read the description and bought something useless.
