Location: Pinson, Alabama		Please disregard my first light report lol. Honestly the Z10 was being considered for Craigs list or ebay BUT it was due to operator error I really could not tell there was a slight haze in the sky. But when I was calling it quits I noticed the faintest halo around Vega. The telrad was good but on only the brightest stars and the views were unimpressive tho better than my 114mm. Fast forward 24 hours the Z10 blew my socks off tack sharp stars (saw doubles with two colored stars) I absolutely could not believe M57. At Saturn it was my first time seeing the cassini division and her moons. Now the Telrad best upgrade I've bought I think I only uncapped my finder one time. So now all I can say is a resounding WOW!!!!!!!! And a big thank you to yall for helping me and guiding me down the right path. I am absolutely 100% hooked.
