Hey AGD, ogle my newest piece of hardware...

[FactsOfLife]

This will be here Friday.

specs:

Orion 120st EQ mounted refractor.
f5 600mm focal length.

CG4 mount with alt/RA drives.

Supposed to be light and portable. Going to be taking it to a star party in the Southern Tier in November to see the Leonids.

Saggitarius ought to be up well enough by then to do some good imaging/looking.

It would be funny to mount that on your gun and see what people say.:)

[CRiZO]

I think you should get a drop for that, maybe a fade anno or something. J/K. nice buy

[Python14]

Why are you buying from Orion when you make your own telescopes? Oh well, I used to buy from Orion too.

[FactsOfLife]

Mostly because I don't build refractors. I build reflectors. And even though my refractors are very portable, I haven't had my hands on a short tube refractor yet and had to have one.
