Hi-can someone with knowledge of optical testing explain this test report for me, please

The scope scores 1/7th wave peak to valley near the red end of the spectrum which is quite good.

It's only a partial test though and doesn't indicate how well the scope will perform at other wavelengths/colours. They've likely picked the best performing wavelength to present to buyers, though the scope is probably at least decent overall and well worth it's price.

You could use a blue and a red CCD filter at high magnification and see if you're able to detect an obvious difference in the sharpness and resolution of an object.

Thanks Tony! Much of it was gobbldigook to me as I have no training in optics-I just appreciate looking through good optics!
