Got an email this afternoon with a tracking number for the refractor. Supposed to be here Thursday so hurrah I guess. I say I guess because Thursday is supposed to be the last clear day for the foreseeable future around here so I don't know when I'll be able to get it out and try it.

So far I have been having pretty good luck buying used. I got the scope, mount, Explore Scientific 82° 14mm Eyepiece, and a Hyperion Mark IV 8-24 zoom with their 2.25 Barlow all second hand. I need a filter for viewing from here in the city then I am going to start working on some camera gear.

How about something along the lines of an Optolong L-Pro Light Pollution Filter for viewing from home?
