Thanks Mike for shearing your early ATM (mis)adventure.
That Stellafane scope looks quite a bit out of proportions though - a 12"-er should be a lot more compact, whatever the type of mount.
However, I remember 1982 very well, as it is the year of my escape across the Iron Curtain.
I built my first scope about two years later - just in time for Halley's comet.
