The OP has purchased the Coronado PST instead
Both are niceHa refractors and are a good entry point to Ha viewing.

I had a PST 40mm and thought it was kind of inadequate even with the double stack. Venus moving across the sun in 2012 was neat.
Went by Lunt and looked thru a 50mm double stack, and that was really nice. I would consider the 50 to be the minimum size to start with.

Arizona- where the sky's are not cloudy all night.
Triple lensed fracs are so yummy when looking at planets.

Hi, full disk within the sweetspot is my greatest desire. I can live with less magnification or without a bino viewer...but at last give me a scope with decent full disk views. Thanks!
