    The new scope has arrived, but not the accessories. Will have to wait for dad to get home before I assemble it, though. I must say that, despite measuring it, it's bigger than I thought it would be.

      Congrats!

      Good idea to wait...

      wait till you see the Flame in this scope! Try the Monkeyhead too, if you have a UHC/OIII, its not that hard to see under your conditions the other night.

      Alas, a filter was beyond the budget I had at the time. But I should be able to get hold of one soon. After making that status the EP, telrad & collimator arrived. That eyepiece is... heavy! Can't wait to put it in the focuser!

      I think everything I saw the other night is on the list of things to look at in this new one! And more!

      :thumbsup:

      If you han't already try the Eskimo nebula in Gemini, no filter needed, find the little glow with the 24mm and then up the mag, around 150x is a nice place, you can see 2 shells if the sky is transparent.
