What you need to get started

Posted By Lorne Johnson

6 to 8 inch dobsonians are pretty inexpensive, and will greatly increase your light gathering power, as well as resolving power. It really opens you up past lunar and planetary.

My school uses 6 inch f 8 dobs.
My old school uses 8 inch f 6 dobs.

The mounts are pretty steady compared to GEM's in your price range.

I'll head our program director toward you.
