It's the good old 1970-era orange C8 like yours Ric that gave me a hankering to have one - I've always loved them. I might look for an old orange one next - and although they've come a long way since I'd still love to have one.
I've also always liked one of our members (Martin)'s C8 which really has superb optics. Sharper than a tack. So's this one - once I finish collimating it on Saturday evening.
It's just a nice, small and easily-managed package to take along on field outings.
Cheers
Chris
