I got $500.00 and NEED to get something

Posted By ROBERT MOORE

OK first, thank you all for your suggestions; some were good, some were great, and some were …. Well thank you anyway.( LOL)

Here’s what I did; it seamed like the majority of you said get something grab & go … But we do have a brandy new Orion Starblast on an gem … but that needs cool down time …not a lot but some. So I went for an 80mm short tube f6 on an EQ4 mount with clock drive, a set of rings for the PST so I can stack it on the new 80mm, some Baader film to make a filter's for the 80mm, Starblast and an offset filter for the XT10i. And knowing that my Wife never reads anything on this forum a Tela Vue 24mm Panoptic. Ya I went a little over the $500.00 but she will never know. ………aaaaaaaa ……..

NO HONNY IT ONLY COST $499.95 PLUS TAX ….. boy gota love that tax

Naked eye rings?

Posted By ROBERT MOORE

Ok YES I KNOW I HAVE AN ASTIGMATISM! hens the new set of glasses, and they are not my first, I have had glasses for 20 years because of an astigmatism. But I got to tell ya, that when I look at other planets or stars I don't see the same thing as I do when i'm looking at Saturn. I know you can't "see the rings" but i'm I... could I be seeing defused light caused by the rings.
