Comments:  
I was ready to order this exact set up when I found a guy selling his 3 month old system.  Saved a BUNCH of green by taking this scope.  Bob Taylor and I made a weekend 'Road Trip' to Missouri to pick it up.  It came with a Scope Buggy that allows me to keep it fully assembled in my garage.  I just roll it out to a flat spot on the driveway, use it, and roll it back in when I'm done.

I have my enclosed telescope trailer that I've been saving for this scope.  A pair of ramps from Harbor Freight make loading it very easy.

Come have a look at the next Star Party...
