@ LunarRob I am with John. Keep the 8" Newt and 4" mak. Magnus A.

I have an Orion Optics UK 8" f/6 Newton. It came with a test called Zygotest. There are some numbers I don`t fully understand. Maybe someone can help me? Strehl 0,982 PV. Wavefront 0.139 wave rms 0,021 wave Ast.Mag 0,029 wave What are those numbers really saying, could be intressting to know.... Test was done Jan 10 2007. Anyway I like this Newtonian. It delivers nice wievs at decent seeing. Startest looks rather good as far as I can judge and it snaps to focus. Clear Skies! Magnus A.

Mr Spock! Splendid sketch of Jupiter. I love all the wonderful details you caught👍Thanks for sharing🙂 Magnus A.

Just 4" and al those details. Wow! Beutiful👍 Magnus A.

I do like your sketches, Mike👍though the nights were not so good. What magnification did you use on the first one? Magnus A.

I have an MK66 std since -09 when I bought it second hand for a very good price. Still love it, though it`s not the deluxe version. Use it mostly for planetary and multiple star observations. Yes it needs cool down time but I can leave it outiside 1-2 hrs before a session depending on temperature. Beutiful star images! During all these years I have collimated it 3X. I even like the standard focuser🙂 Magnus A.
