Have you sent your PL16803 off for service yet? I have to send mine now - its been on my list to do for a while now.
Yes it should be back soon

I am refractorless at the moment - its bugging me a bit. I was thinking of another FSQ106 but done 2 of those.

Eyeing off a CFF105 F6 as he seems to be the new Roland Christen. Seeing Suavi's images just cements it.

In the meantime some widefield lens type imaging will do but it won't last too long!

Not sure how anything in its class could really be any better than a Tak FSQ106 , other than perhaps being lighter..? ..but ya never know

Sorry Mike, I got sidetracked.
Thanks I hope so...and no worries Suavi, sometimes the side track is more interesting than the HWY anyway I look forward to seeing your deep projects, IMO you produced the best Helix image of all I saw this season, (and one of the best of all time really) magical

Mike
