Re: Getting a bigger telescope (was: Lunatic in Palo Alto ...)

So my mistake:

The way I read many of your posts was:
"Nothing would be 'significantly' better and more (or as) portable than what I have already have." That we'd agreed to disagree on.

If instead at the core of the matter you are saying, "I've seen enough. I am happy to stand pat. What I might see with 8 to 10 inches more of aperture is not worth it to me.", then by all means, lets end this thread. But lets end it on "I am happy to stand pat." No one can argue with that.

There are scopes as 'portable' as Harvey and they will show more. It's all, as you said, in the definition of 'significant'.

Best wishes
Jeff
