Re: ATM 8" Cass Blank,

8"F30 R-C scope for looking at the planets?  Magnification of the secondary
would be 7.5 and that would also make for a fairly small secondary.
Needless to say, the 240" focal length would make for a very easy scope to
use with large longer focal length eyepieces.  It wouldn't be very good tho
looking at larger objects as the moon would more than fill any 2" EP.
