I have been making positional obs thru fujinon 10x70 binocs. I have been considering purchasing a telescope on & off for several years, and would appreciate feedback (&/or web links) on suggested type and aperture (and eyepiece) for scope that could be used for sat positional obs and also used for other amateur astronomy purposes. although cost is always an issue, please include scopes in a range up to about $3000 US (although I doubt I will buy a scope at the high end of that range :) Eg, is a dobs with more aperture desirable over a smaller scope with perhaps computerized mount, or are those the wrong considerations? I live in a somewhat remote area so I get little hands on exposure to various scopes. please reply by private email as this may be somewhat off list focus. thanks! ******************************************* Paul Gabriel 26.24310N 098.21635W 33m (the stars at night are big & bright......) gabriel305@earthlink.net titan / win95C / Calypso ----------------------------------------------------------------- Unsubscribe from SeeSat-L by sending a message with 'unsubscribe' in the SUBJECT to SeeSat-L-request@lists.satellite.eu.org http://www2.satellite.eu.org/seesat/seesatindex.html
