Hey so I own a professional observatory but I have recently been encountering problems with my telescope and mount and everything I currently have the Planewave RC 700 but I want to buy a new telescope like the RC 1000 or CDK 1000 for missions to. So please leave your suggestions bellow I already have the camera and the rest of everything I will also be getting a motorized observatory place in a land in Texas Astro Haven - 7 Foot Dome Automated and Motorized from telescope.net. 


Thanks for your suggestion's 


in regard, Nikolai

A 7' dome seems pretty tight for a 1-m scope.  Are you sure that's big enough?  How good is the seeing at your site?  I personally wouldn't bother with a 1-m scope unless you have 1" or better seeing conditions.
