I've been thinking about getting a scope(& mount) that would be more easily dealt with on a camping trip than my C9.25 CPC. My initial thoughts were leaning towards an ETX 127 or something similar. I know there are some nice refractors of about the same size that might work too, but I'd like to keep the price below $700. What small scopes will give me the best views of DSO's? I just spent a few weeks in an area with amazing skies, armed only with a small pair of birding binocs. Never again.
We can continue the refractor vs reflector fight here, I suppose.

I am trying to use a DSI to guide with the amazing F50 finderscope from stellarvue, however I cannot reach focus with the helical focuser when the DSI is attached. Has anyone tried this before? Im trying to avoid using an Orion shortube 80mm, cause im afraid itll max out my mount (LXD75 SN10). I have everything working great, but if i cant achieve focus on the F50M, im gonna have to try and modify the original meade craptastic finderscope (im looking to avoid this).

Just to let you know I just got off of a call with my managers and tomorrow I will be purchasing 9 new cars for a company that I have a financial interest in. I will only be considering cars manufactured by companies that Obama has not screwed up when he forced the government to purchase them. I have been speaking to other business owners as well. We are speaking with our money. Obama sucks and so does his policies. Obama and his insane policies have failed and will fail. As I have said I will do ANYTHING legal to ensure that Obama insanity is a failure. Commies like Obama and their lib policies must fail for the sake of the country.

BTW I expect to only purchase Ford, but I would buy a foreign car before I would empower idiots like OWright.

If libs were to continue their reign of terror on this country, what other ridiculous schemes should we expect from der Feurer and his comrades? Besides the leftist think tanks we can always see what libs think by simply going to their websites that demonstrate on a daily basis the thoughts of the grassroots - moveon.org and democraticunderground.org are the leftists most obvious sites. Another place you can look at for lib ideas is to look at other countries. When any country does something liberal our leftists here ignore all of the problems and immediately say that unless we do the same, we are backwards. With that in mind, here is just another lib scheme that shows just where lib philosophy leads:

I am pretty sure that some of our leftist friends here on AM would be all for this kind of scheme.

We need to continue our lessons on liberalism through next years elections to ensure that this time when we vote, it is obvious just how devastating liberalism is so that we learn from the lessons of the past and remove these extremists from power ASAP.
