Pre-Tasco scopes were more hit and miss and sometimes worse than Meade in rare cases. Mooron's ignorance and boredom are obvious. See Joe..... here Bob is bragging once again about the quality of an instrument that he cannot possibly realize the full use of in his current area. He's being pretentious and self righteous. He can't admit the fact that he has an idiotic piece of equipment for his location... yet feels obligated to point out the fact that his scope is the best on the market.... not the best to suit his situation. He even goes so far as to state that they are the most powerful scopes sold to the public!!?? WTF... "the public" can buy way more powerful telescopes than those. It's not like you need a license to own a telescope.... unless the Patriot Act has suspended the privilege of purchase. CM |

Geee I read that many seek out the orange tube model. That the quailty at the time was un-surpassed. Mooron's ignorance and boredom are obvious.

He's being pretentious and self righteous. Really! I'm amazed. He can't admit the fact that he has an idiotic piece of equipment for his location... yet feels obligated to point out the fact that his scope is the best on the market.... not the best to suit his situation.

I think most larger mirrows than 11" get very expensive. But your right, if ya got the bucks Ill sell you a 20 footer from the University of Arizona. But finding something off the shelf larger than 11" might be a hard task. It's not like you need a license to own a telescope.... unless the Patriot Act has suspended the privilege of purchase. Not sure about telescopes, but I heard you now need permission, or some sort of permit to launch Estes type rockets. Joe CM |
