Thanks, Chuck. I just ordered 3. You're right (as always), I have used them for years as my preferred star party eyepieces in my sub-ten inch telescopes because they are so user friendly: great eye relief and relatively low power.

"Glasses-on" eye relief. It receives many favorable reviews and gets a lot of testimonials over at Cloudy Nights. _______________________________________________ Utah-Astronomy mailing list http://mailman.xmission.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/utah-astronomy Send messages to the list to Utah-Astronomy@mailman.xmission.com The Utah-Astronomy mailing list is not affiliated with any astronomy club.
