I joined the DOB owners group but dont use it because i feel that no one will take me serious because i only own a 5.1" mini Dob (SkyWatcher Heritage) .

Damnit people lets eliminate sizeism from astronomy.

I am a mini DOB...............HEAR ME ROAR.

hi Valleyman, I ordered a Skyliner 200p from FLO on Thursday and my wife texted me at work today to say "we're going to need a bigger house". I rushed home from work to find 2 large cardboard boxes. All of the tools required for assembly were in one of the boxes so I got to work and in less than an hour it was all assembled and ready to go. A quick check out of the window revealed thick cloud! Typical eh? Never mind, time to look at the manuals and check over the controls to see if all was well. I'm impressed with the build quality 200P, hopefully I'll not have to wait too long to see what the optical quality is like. It doesn't look like the cloud will clear tonight so I might check out the Estate Agents online to find that bigger house my wife mentioned. cheers
