Telrad finder

[Strugz]

Just seen a Telrad finder for £25 quid. Looks like it is fixed to the tube with tape? Am tempted..anyone got any views?

best thing you'll ever buy (apart from a scope of course)!

yes, double sided foam tape like the stuff used for car number plates.

I was umming and arring about getting a telrad, but finally gave in. I got to use it last week for the first tima end am chufffed with it. It is really simple to align - three knobs on the rear of the sight. Apparently, it holds alignment too so not much need for re adjusting ( time will tell). Anyway, with the sight pattern of half, two and four degre circles respectively, I found it realy easy to navigate around the sky and only used my 9 x 50 for the fainter stars for star hopping. I personally would say that a telrad is a must buy. Build quality isn't the best for the money spent, but it does one heck of a good job!! and yes, it is sticky backed tape to fix it to the O.T.A!
