Hi All,
I just found astromart, cool site. I just found my fisrt copy of Ski & Tele and now I'm finding galixies & nebulas with my 4.5" mead newt. reflector. So far the H25mm eyepiece has been the only one I can use to see Andromada clearly, yet it's still so far out. When I use the H12mm it gets close, but its all washed out, even at 8000' outside of Tahoe (very dark). I've now seen all these filters and diffrent eyepieces & zooms and I'm now thinking I can get this teliscope to see deeper and clearer with some good equipment. I'm looking for suggestions on one or two good eyepieces & a few filters for looking at galixes & nebulas.
Thanks for any suggestions!
Bryan
