Too small. Suspect Meade quality, as usual. OTA can be adapted as a good
finder/tracking scope. It's also a good study scope, which means it looks good
in your study, sitting unused on the shelf next to the talking Edmund
Scientific globe.

Actually, unless extreme portability are a HUGE factor, you can do far better
than the ETX line for your dollar.

Good luck,
