If you can, spring for a bolt-on electric focusing mechanism. They make
everything so much easier and more enjoyable. Nothing is more jarring than the
image jumping around every time you touch the focuser.

Well, a friend of mine asked if I knew of anyone in the market for a
telescope since her boss was helping with an estate sale and they had a
Meade LX200 8" SC 'scope that they'd like to sell.
I raised my hand and said, "MEMEMEMEMEME!!!"
