Folks,

Shall I buy a 10in meade LXD-55 with Ultra High coating for $1249

or

Shall I buy a Celestron 6 inch C6RGT for $1094 (includes a GOTO mount).

or ?

...a custom-made Parks 8" f/5 Newtonian O.T.A. for a paltry $1099,
but not including a JMI NGF-DX3 focuser as an afterthought?

Yes!!!

thanks!!!!

You're most welcome.

Alan
