At 45.6x in my 25mm Meade, I like how it's near those two stars. At 130x it looks nice as well, but at 228x, just a bit hard to focus! I use the red star as my focus star, then move the scope back where M13 is. I kinda like M13 with Medium power ( 65x-130x ), but M92, I use MORE POWER! -------------------- -Jake the Snake My equipment: Orion DSE 10" Light Bucket! 10x50 Finder and ebay bracket 40mm GSO Plossl 32mm Celestron Plossl 2x Antares Barlow 25mm and 6.7mm Meade 3000 Plossls Orion Explorer II 10mm and 17mm Kellners Orion SkyGlow Ultrablock Antares ND25 75 M's Obsreved All Planets seen Post Extras       Entire thread Subject Posted by Posted on M-13 at 200x magnification GeorgeNC 07/03/08 10:45 AM Re: M-13 at 200x magnification bicparker   07/03/08 01:48 PM Re: M-13 at 200x magnification JakeT93   07/03/08 09:38 PM Re: M-13 at 200x magnification lymorkiew45   07/03/08 10:09 PM Re: M-13 at 200x magnification desertrefugee   07/03/08 10:51 PM Re: M-13 at 200x magnification RussL   07/03/08 11:06 PM Re: M-13 at 200x magnification Mr Q   07/04/08 01:49 PM Re: M-13 at 200x magnification Olivier Biot   07/05/08 10:21 AM Re: M-13 at 200x magnification Paul_R   07/05/08 12:03 PM Re: M-13 at 200x magnification Illinois   07/03/08 11:38 AM Extra information 3 registered and 3 anonymous users are browsing this forum.
