Hi. First post. I'm seriously considering the Meade LXD75 8 inch Schmidt Newtonian. My question is whether the UHTC coatings option is worth the money? I live in suburban (I think about Mag 4.5?) skies, but I can (and do) get out to dark skies, too. I've been using binocs and an Astroscan. I enjoy planets, but I really dig deep space stuff, and I really get a kick out of the Messier objects. With that introduction, would I notice a difference with the UHTC? If so, I'll get it.
Thanks all!
Thanks all!
