  3. Hi i have a 8"celestron sct avx scope. I am getting some decent images with the camera. So i am thinking is it worth upgrading to a 9.25 or a 11" SCT. I am based about 3 miles from the city but less then a mile from the sea. So the sky can be dark enough for dso which is my interest

      Ask in a forum, you may get more answers. Also, my belief is that cassegrains are not as suited to dsos as newts are? Bit anyway, ask in a forum:D

  9. Absolute complete and utter NEWBY!! Just purhcased a Skywatcher Explorer 200P + EQ5 mount after hearing so mnay good reports. Now that I actually have it in my posession I seem to be seeing loads of horror stories from people who are tearing their hair out after months of trying to set the scope up. I would really like to know how to do things properly before I dive into the (enourmous) boxes. Any advice appreciated.
