Default ASTRO: M45 quickie

Thanks Jim.
The ED80 is the "cheap" version, not the "luxury" Equinox. In spite of it's
low price I am very satisfied with the performance of this little scope.
The reducer is a "Vixen focal reducer for ED81S/ED103S", part #3666. I got
it from a hungarian dealer with a special adaptor to directly screw on the
end of the ED80 focuser tube, so there is no danger of the reducer not
sitting straight in a 2" focuser.
