    The list is modest, but I can say astronomy tops the list. I also like to go fishing, cook, go camping, read, meet new people, drink beer by the outside fire at night, and a few other things.

    Meade makes a 130mm APO, does anyone own one? I would like to know what your synopsis is on it. Thanks

    I would appreciate it,if anyone could give me advice on the best deal for a 5" Apo refractor & mount. Thanks

      Probably the best deal on a scope in the 5" apo is the ES 127 Triplet at $1900 from Optcorp. OPT also do a 111mm Astro-Tech triplet at $1600. They do a 120mm Skywatcher at $1550 but it is an ED doublet so strictly not an apo. Cannot help on mounts. The US and UK have different ones although look at the iOptron ones as they are available here and in the US.

      Thanks Ronin. Not for my lack of looking on the web, I thought it wise to ask people with far more experience then I. I appreciate the info. Cheers!!

    You have a very nice set-up. I've been on my astronomy journey/adventure for a little over a year now. I've been studying,learning the sky,with & without binoculars,going old school.I'll be buying gear fairly soon,so you gave me some helpful ideas. Thanks
