" It gives great images, almost as good as a refractor." :) Wedge Overlook On Fri, Feb 3, 2012 at 11:05 AM, Brent Watson <brentjwatson@yahoo.com>wrote:
I always have said that my 8" refractor would be the last to go. Having said that, I have already sold the 22" and given my 6" away, but still have my 12.5" f8 and my 10" f10. Perhaps the order would be:
1. 8" refractor 2. 12.5" f8 dob 3. 10" f10 planetary newt
The secondary on the 10" is only 7/8" minor axis, and it has a BK7 window in front ground parallel and flat. No spider. It gives great images, almost as good as a refractor.
I am glad I don't have to choose. But then, none of my scopes gets used much. _______________________________________________ Utah-Astronomy mailing list http://mailman.xmission.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/utah-astronomy
