No. Face it, your getting 80mm when it should be at least 90. I have no
idea what the fluky mentality
with 80mm aperture is. 80 was good 15 years ago and I just don't understand
the fixation.


I own a 10inch dob and personally couldnt fathom spending as much or
more money on such a small scope (once mountings are added).
