mjrrenegade Posted October 8, 2010 Share Posted October 8, 2010 Hi all, been keen on astronomy for a while and finally took the plunge and bought a Skywatcher Skyliner 150p a couple of weeks ago. All i can say is wow! brilliant scope for the money and even though the weather hasn't been too great lately i've had great views of Jupiter, the Moon and i even found M57 last night after waiting for the clouds to break Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
