This thread about Izar which is one of my favorites motivated me try it with my 2.4 inch Unitron. It was crossing the meridian and almost straight up and in good air. Stunning view at 187X. The secondary while pale in color was perfectly viewed sitting on the outside edge of the diffraction ring. It truely was a crisp view. Actually preferred the view compared to my 10 inch that I used a few minutes later. However the dim secondary had a more vivid blue/green hue than with the small refractor. In either case it was a pleasure to observe. Also proves to me Izar is well within the grasp of a 2.4 inch scope. Bill N.
