I was the second Vice President of CAS in 2001 & 2002. The following pictures are of my telescopes. I start in order of the smallest ( and cheapest) telescope.

Galileo 60 mm F10 refractor on an Alt/Az mount. Scope comes with very nice cloth carrying case, a monochrome video camera, and a monochrome monitor.

Orion 80 mm F5 short tube refractor on a compact tripod. Also has a nice carrying case and some very nice accessories.

Meade Instruments 90 mm F11 refractor on equatorial mount and aluminum tripod.

Not pictured is my very old Edmund Scientific 4.25 inch F10 reflector.

Pictured above is the award winning home made 10 inch F5.85 "Compulsion" dobsonian telescope. The mirror was ground by R. Wessling of Pine Optical and the scope was designed and built by Terry Hubbert assisted by the owner, me. This scope is pictured at NIAGfest 2001. Unfortunately, this scope did not win at NIAGfest, but did at Apollo Rendezvous 2000, where it won most popular and best dobsonian telescope.

I no longer own an Obsession 18" telescope. I had to sell it.
