Dear binoviewer users, I'm seeking advice about a focusing problem with my very new WO binoviewers.
I have a GSO 302mm newtonian on dob mount but I can't bring the binoviewers into focus for distant objects like the moon, planets etc - in short, the very things I want to look at. I just can't focus in enough (towards the tube) despite using the x1.6 corrector which came with the WO package.
I understand there is a x2 barlow and an extender that is made by WO to fit the WO binos. Has anyone any info on whether one or other or both would help me focus down enough?
I believe an alternative way to fix the problem would be to fit a low profile focuser but I'm not too keen on that.
Very grateful for any advice.
Eric
