OMG! A rogue Unicorn!
Steve, WOW! That's all I can say!
Do you have any other specs about it, such as focal length? What size focuser does it have, 1.25", 2"? How much does it weigh? Any coatings on the optics?
I haven't heard of Bill James. Any details you can share about the man? Not his phone number... , but his work.
Any chance of a few more pics? Down the OTA, the rear, mounting plate, etc, would all be great to have a squizz at!
And of course, how does it perform???
Damn I'd love to get a look through it!
But it's too far away...
