Limerick Astronomy Club

Well guys,
I was only talking about this in the meeting yesterday and they announce it today.

Some good scopes there and the prices arent bad either.

Ya, it seems to be a Christmas tradition with them
though the prices are the same as last year which is a bit
dissapointing.
The LXD75 6" is a good scope,
the picture they use makes it look odd
I think it's the angle of it,
it is in reality a hefty bit of gear.
This pic shows it more like it is in reality.


I bought one 2 years ago and it blew up.
Litterally.
Make sure you hold onto the reciept!

I was thinking I'd buy one in a few years when the prices
got a bit better.
600 Euro seems like a hell of a lot more money today than it did then!

Think I'll give it a miss.
