Llanzlan, its nice that you are getting a "free" scope...but
I should point out that with our hobby, equipment (except for
binoculars) comes LAST, not first. Learning the night naked-eye
sky comes first (you may have already surmised this).
For if you can't point your finger to Saturn, the Andromeda Galaxy,
or the Beehive star cluster in Cancer, all naked-eye objects in
a dark sky, how are you going to
point a scope (which only has a field of view of 1/2 degree, or
less)? at them?


Er. I think you replied to the wrong poster.

Llanzlan.
