I've got a 10" LX200 SCT and love it - I can only imagine what 150% more light-gathering capability would look like. Then again - a 10" SCT already pushes the limits of portability.
Calm down Shell!
No worries, Frodo. I have too much control over my sex hormones these days, if you ask me. I haven't felt anything more than a passing attraction in years.

That said, I'd love to have a 10" LX200 OTA on my mount. With a focal reducer/field flattener, it becomes a true astrophotography workhorse. But for amateur observatory work, this 16" will be a loveable tyrant. And it is certainly anythjing but portable. They say it weighs about 275 lbs fully assembled. Can't wait to point it at Jupiter.
'The difference between a Miracle and a Fact is exactly the difference between a mermaid and seal. It could not be expressed better.'
-- Samuel "Mark Twain" Clemens "I think that in the discussion of natural problems we ought to begin not with the scriptures, but with experiments, demonstrations, and observations". - Galileo Galilei (1564-1642) "In short, Meyer has shown that his first disastrous book was not a fluke: he is capable of going into any field in which he has no training or research experience and botching it just as badly as he did molecular biology. As I've written before, if you are a complete amateur and don't understand a subject, don't demonstrate the Dunning-Kruger effect by writing a book about it and proving your ignorance to everyone else!

Thats a slippery slope that leads to man-hating and lots of cats stinking up your house as you knit pastel scarves for your nieces and nephews.
I see Shell as the old lady with a huge dog and a billion books whose house the kids tiptoe around

Mankind's intelligence walks hand in hand with it's stupidity. Being an atheist says nothing about your overall intelligence, it just means you don't believe in god. Atheists can be as bright as any scientist and as stupid as any creationist. You never really know just how stupid someone is, until you've argued with them. RE: Member Photos

I did it once for the coolest cat in the world. Won't do it again. As for being an old maid, well, I didn't say I wasn't interested in sex. I'm just not interested in the options.
