Hi George, I've looked through 24-inch Newtonian-mirrored scopes on Dobsonian mounts at star parties. Such scopes can reveal galaxies at the eyepiece down to magnitude 16 under really good atmospheric conditions. This one is fortunate to reveal galaxies magnitude 12 -- some 40 times brighter. But as you will see later in this series, even with an inexpensive imager can go as deep (but not with the same image quality, unfortunately...)

Good job, it’s not a big scope
