Clean the mirror..but find out how to do that first..but half a drop of detergent in a big glass of Nimbin rain water is one approach ...use cotton wool very very gently...if there is a spot that does not come off just leave it..it's not a big deal... there are much more dedicated procedures but for a mirror that's on the way out my suggestion should be ok..others will correct me hopefully or offer better advice...re mirror is around $500 to $600 for a 12 inch...
The reticule you stuffed can be used as an eye piece for the scope..not ideal but you can make it work.
To upload a photo..hit advanced..the manage attachments..top left "choose file"...place your photo file there under a mega...hit upload file..after a while you will see below the file appear in blue..then hit "close" and then submit reply.
