Meade vs. Celestron 8" GPSPosted By Kurt Horsley |
Hi Scott,
When you make your choice, you should give serious consideration to what type of customer service you will receive if you need any. Although some people will disagree, Celestron is clearly far superior to Meade in customer service. They do exactly what they say they will, and they won't try to sell you ridiculous "telescope insurance" that cost's hundreds of dollars and is completely unenforceable. Over the past 15 years, Celestron has worked on telescopes that I have owned that were many years out of warranty, and never charged me a cent for any of their service. They're polite, courteous and actually answer the phone if you give them a call. Having had several Meade and Celestron scopes over the last two decades, I highly recommend Celestron. I equally DO NOT recommend Meade.
Service is a serious matter when purchasing an expensive optic. Please give it proper consideration...you'll be glad you did. Regards, Kurt Horsley

The Ranger and the Pronto Are No MorePosted By Kurt Horsley |
They've been gone for awhile now. I think you're right about the 80ED and the others. Can't sell 70mm ED's anymore for $1200. I enjoyed two of them myself, but times are changing...for the better. -Kurt Horsley

Celestron 102GTPosted By Kurt Horsley |
Mark,
Yes...the mount is exactly the same. It's on the light side, but it's a nice little set-up for the price. -Kurt Horsley

Texas GeckoPosted By Kurt Horsley |
Cool shot Ron. You're right...these things have been exploding in the north Texas area. I see them all the time now and never saw them before a year or two ago. I used to find several of them inside pepsi cartons, which makes me think that they have been imported from some other location and then released here in great numbers. Whatever the case, you're right, there are a lot of them now and they are indeed welcome. -Kurt Horsley

These little guys are really cool Ron. I'm seeing more and more of them around lately. I've seen some that were under a half inch long. Very cute little critters. -Kurt Horsley
