Hey folks, I just bought my nephew a pair of Barska 15X70's for Christmas. Big 5 Sports still had them on 12th and Wall in Ogden. Of course I had to give the poor salesclerk a lesson on the evils of those 60mm "department store telescopes" hanging on the wall... B) My nephew seems to get in an astronomical mood often and will really study an object like the moon for a lengthy period of time. I hope to encourage that with this gift. I better get busy and make him a good mount for them. Thanks everyone for the heads-up. 73 de n7zi Gary "Why buy something for ten bucks when you can make it for a hundred.", J.R.
