yeah tim haha.
Like the takahashi systems are the holy grail and a peek thru them makes so much difference.
I probably won't have so much budget to immerse myself not unless i kana TOTO or 4D haha.
I had a good time enjoying myself and the views of the celestial objects through different set up has been most satisfying.

Nah, Taks are not the holy grill.
I think Astro-Physics for Refractors and Mounts
Obsessions/Starmasters for dobs
RCOS for imaging RCs
*grin*
Like you, I don't think I can bear to pay for that stuff even if I have the cash so I'm pretty content with my current gear, all mass market stuff

About 2 hrs after clearing customs. Up to kota tinggi then down again past Desaru.
Only it took me 6 hrs cos a durian truck overturned on one of the small highways that time. ETA6pm became 10pm.
Other than Punggai if you're driving can also check out Sedili. I've been meaning to head up but haven't had the time. Its north after Kota Tinggi so it gets me further away from the light dome of Singapore
