Don't laugh - its serious stuff!

Great buy Mike!  It looks very like my old Meade 70/700, a 'scope I owe a lot to.  (Esp. as it got me away from a Newt on an EQ, which I simply didn't use.)

As we advance with this pastime, it's easy to lose track of how much these little 'scopes can do - and how easy they are to use.

Nice buy!

This reminds me that I still have my Tasco 60mm f/15 in the garage. I haven't used it since I replaced its focuser with a 1.25" unit about 2 years ago.

My first scope was a Tasco, but down in size! Instead of separate eyepieces, it has a single extendable eyepiece with magnification gradation marks as you pulled it out! But it got me started in Astro!! Unfortunately its long gone now.
