Bob Sal,

Knowing you have an LX200 12", and I am still awaiting my 12" LX200 GPS (I think this thing may never show up) How would you seriously compare the refractor six or seven inch to the scope you now have? I know the refractors have several great qualities : focusing is great and the glass quality is far superior, But given a seven inch refractor VS the 12" SCT, which is going to give us the best images in your opinion?
