I'm sure you have already heard many times over, but I wish to add my personal appreciation for the Coronado PST. I too was more than impressed and overwhelmed. After reading many reviews and many a forum praise, I finally bought a new PST and it arrived Friday in time for the rain. However, today arrived without a cloud so I set it up on my GM-8 and was blown away. I kept calling my wife out for every eyepiece exchange as the view just kept getting better. I used a Nagler 12mm T4, very nice, then a Nagler 9mm T6, even better, very appealing and finally a Tak LE 7.5, quite impressive.
My question is, what is the highest power anyone has used with their PST? I went for my TV 2X 1.25, but it was too long to reach focus. Is there a shorty barlow that will work besides the Cemax, or must I buy another eyepiece, and if so, what would you suggest? It appears that a 4mm would do, but I don't want to waste time hunting for the right magnification.
Any suggestions?
Thanks,
Steve
