Hi Markus As I am getting a great TMB 7 incher in approximatley a month, (my wifey credits have all been eaten up with that wonderfull purchase, and the fine...
Hi Bob, Step out of the Lurking mode for a moment, while you're waiting for his reply. How about this 14" TMB apo? <g> Let us know how you like this TMB 175mm...
Thomas, you make much sense in your post. But why is Dr. Parker using a 16" Newtonian rather than a 8" APO with his excellent seeing? There must be a point...
Hi William Like you, I have a TMB 115LW and have enjoyed it immensely since getting earlier this year. As I mainly do imaging, it is easy to get Aperaturittis...
Dear Bob: The TMB 175 and the Losmandy Titan are made for each other, and the Titan will be able to provide a measure of "over-support" for the 7 inch apo...

Hi Norm No, I do not want Jim to get an 8" TMB. We have a running one-up- manship that has been going on for almost our collective 100 years. I would then need...
Dear Wayne: LOL Got me! I am, in general, feeling MUCH better, and was, of course, "pulling your chain" just a bit. And, of course, you are correct that IF you...
Hi Don, I certainly agree with everything you say. I would add that the indiviual or indivduals who took/made that image also deserve great credit. :~) Jim...
Hello, I know that "on paper" is important, very important and do not for an instance disagree with anything you have said especially about the math. I am...
Your 8" TMB sounds magnificent and I certainly don't wish to imply I would not be 100% satisfied by the views. More often than not seeing limits large scopes...
... That's another can of worms, Jim. I didn't get into astronomy until 1948's fall semester at Roosevelt University, which led to my finishing my 3/20-wave...
Dear Donald: I never started stamp collecting, but know two people who did. All I can say is that if you started back in 1938, and devoted a decent amount of...
Hi Wayne, I have a disagreement with you conclusions.The following is from personal experience: A TMB 8" F/9 on an AP 1200 Mount is a superb combination. The ...
I had stars for about an hour last night !! After measuring three binaries, I decided to try the 4mm again. The Double-Double just fits in the FOV at 200x (no...

Hi Jim, Could you let me know what f/ratio you were using and how many frames were taken and of them how many used. I've got my new laptop now and will be...
Hi, I'm currently waiting for a TMB 80 f/6, that I purchased for a quick grab setup with a Televue Gibraltar. Today I was thinking that the scope could fit...
