I've heard rumors that a 16" truss dob made by Guan Sheng may soon hit
the markets. Can anyone confirm this?
Thanks,
Al

I don't know about Guan Sheng itself, but the review of the 10" and 12"
Meade Light Bridge telescopes in the ober Sky & Telescope says Meade is
working on a 16" version, and it will be just under $2,000.
Clear skies, Alan

Yep, the GSO 16" f4.5 Dobs are "on the way" sometime soon. The 16"
Meade Lightbridges will use the GSO mirrors.
