Hey Dax, What are the specifications on it such as length, weight, f#, eyepiece diameter? If it's not too big it might be able to be mounted on your 10" and...
Well, it's that time of year again and somebody's got to fess up. Considering the lovely weather we've been having, somebody must have got themselves one very...
... Congrats Mark! That's sweet! That news will no doubt account for at least a couple of cloudy nights, not to mention when they're finally sold in a new ...
... Relax ZZ, we currently have a "limited time offer" going until midnight tonight; everyone who confesses is granted total immunity from official tac-sac...
... Well, first of all, let me state categorically that I acquired these products during November, well in advance of the holiday season, and some of the bad...

Okay..so I am Saturn struck. I mean it. It is just so amazing to look through the telescope and see that little yellow dot transformed into the heavenly...

... Yeah, with my 10" dob from my backyard. It's also fun to track satellites, particularly large ones like Mir (R.I.P.) or the International Space Station. ...

Yup... missed out on the 4.8 Nagler deal.. Oh well... There were 400 of 'em. Soooooo... since SO many in Calif took advantage of the deal, I would say that ...
... Dax, Randy makes some good points. It's always best to try before you buy. I do have a 4.8 Nagler and a variety of 1.25" and 2" Powermates and Barlows...
... Excellent advice! If they're sold out, not all is lost. Certainly a few of those vintage Naglers will find their way to AstroMart where you can pick one up...
... Man, I remember that sweet 19 Pan. That's the one you made hints about selling to me, before you sold it to the WoodMaster. You should have sold it to me:...
