I googled "Newt Astronomy". Kinda funny what most of the hits are.

I'm still looking for feedback. I'm especially interested in
measurements from Asian import Newtonian OTA's.

Thanks,
Pat

My web site for Newt Astronomy isn't up yet. I googled it too, and
only found references to Newtonian telescopes, so Shawn I'm not sure
what you are referring too...

What will be tested is an accessory for Newtonian telescopes. I'd call
it a necessity rather than accessory, but I don't really want to say
what it is yet. No big secret or breakthrough - just filling a
percieved niche.

The first four links or so were telescope related the rest are Harry
Potter book and movie. Just struck me as funny.
Sorry I can't help with your survey I'm a SCT and refractor user.

I just saw the difference. I put quotes around it, "Newt Astronomy" to
narrow the search.

Have you got any for a Celestron C6 yet? I'm too lazy to check mine.
