With you being in a city I would take the advise of the fine people above. Go to the star parties view for free, ask the hows and whys of each instrument thats is a great way to get started. Then you can make a informed selection when you buy your telescope.

Thanks folks, The sky here has a lot of lp. But I can still manage it with setting circles.
