Never had focusing problems mate. Had issues with coma correction & collimation, had major frustrations with guiding, and the focuser on your old OTA broke a bearing, but both OTAs worked more or less like they're supposed to.

When I said that the refractor was razor sharp, I meant to say across the whole field rather than just in the middle. Neither my Baader nor my GSO coma correctors seemed to sort that out for me. Dunno why. I'm guessing the spacing was off but I tried a lot of variations after reading dozens of forums - still no luck.
