What's the difference between these two? The Meade web site is not clear
and refers to both as the DS-2114 until you look further into the specs. The ATSA is available at Walmart (as are all Telestar models)...is this possible a made-for-Walmart line...what's missing? DH |

While these scopes can be useable, I think the general consensus is that there are better values and better ways to spend ones money. IMHO a good scope starts with a solid mount, decent optics, decent eyepieces and a good finder. The DS series of scope trade these off for a rather unreliable GOTO system, not a good trade IMHO. I suggest looking at what www.oriontel.comn has to offer. jon |
