While you're here, how about checking out the Astronomy Book List ?

Hey John,

Unless you're getting into astrophotography you won't need a wedge. Alt-az
mounting on the tripod is more stable.

On the other hand, if you do need a wedge, get a good one. The Milburn wedge
is well spoken of here and it's about the same price as the superwedge. I
believe someone else makes a quality wedge also, however the name escapes me
for the moment. ??

Alan


>>>I just picked up the 10" LX200 and wonder, is the regular Meade wedge
(advertised for the 8") compatible with the 10" base? Or do I have to drop
$400 for the Superwedge instead of "only" $150 for the regular?<<<
