Description

This represents first light for my new Askar 107PHQ f/7 refractor!  I chose this target for my younger daughter, who is all about all things Halloween... even in July!

Having dealt with a setup as unforgiving as the Hyperstar for 2 years, I was completely floored by the ease-of-use and completely flat field out of the box.  Naturally, it had to get bombed by bats (oh boy did I need more PECPADS!), but thankfully the coatings didn't appear to take any damage substantial enough to wreck the scope.

Hope you enjoy!
