What is a good first telescope (what manf.)?
with GPS or without?


Telescopes are like clothing:
1. No one size fits all.
2. Select for purpose, function, and interests
3. Sometimes you pay more for a label.

Please be more specific:
- What are your interests (stars, planets, moon, deep-sky, etc.)?
- Where will you use it?
- What are your physical and financial limitations?
- Who else will be looking though it?
- How committed are you to the hobby? (sight-seer, fanatic, other?)

When you can answer these, then get back with us.

Cheers,
Larry G.
