Hello MikeG and List, "Nice old-school refractor with solar projection screen in the background behind Matt. Looks like a vintage Tasco. Those are great little small scopes, they don't build them like that any more."
Yeah, TASCO ... brings back memories of my Tasco Newtonian. It was a "nice" scope but when I got my Celestron-8, I immediately realized that TASCO and CELESTRON were worlds apart: price - quality - resolution of double stars - eye piece quality - stability, etc. Here's a pic (pers. mail) of the Tasco scope I had in the early 70's :-) Best from Germany, Bernd ______________________________________________ http://www.meteoritecentral.com Meteorite-list mailing list [email protected] http://six.pairlist.net/mailman/listinfo/meteorite-list
