And how much aperture for such a baby?!

Hi Anthony!

We're rolling out the PST in January at a suggested retail of $499USD.
40mm aperture 'scope with an internally mounted etalon, sub-Angstrom
FWHM.

Should I bring one out for the transit?

I want 270 degree eyepieces, so I can watch myself while I'm observing.

It IS going to be a great year.

Then John Dobson will commit suicide because he can't bare to watch how
morons have ruined his simple mount.

80mm 90mm 100mm 114mm and 120mm ED scopes out of China


We need to boycott all products from China. They are stealing jobs from hard
working Americans. All manufacturing should take place in America.

1/40th wave Newtonian mirror scopes.


The seeing is so crappy where I live you can't see the difference between
1/6th and 1/10th wave. That wave crap is a bunch of BS.

Dedicated Solar Prominence Telescope under $600.


Now that would be good.
