November 9, 2007, Newsletter Issue #99: Features of GPS Telescopes

Tip of the Week

There are several major features that you need to look for when buying a GPS equipped telescope: telescope model, telescope portability, and available electronic library of celestial objects. Before buying your GPS telescope, you need to calculate your own needs -- figure out if it is going to be your primary scope or if you intend to use it as a portable scope. You will also need to take in to account just how you intend to transport the telescope, and how much celestial viewing you are going to do. Select a telescope that is easily transportable, and has a reasonable amount of viewing power. Make sure that the available electronic library matches the power of your telescope -- a large library is no use to you if your telescope is not powerful enough for the required viewing.
