It's weird how one's mind makes connections when trying to come up with a name for a device.
A few days ago, I was reading a post by Atmos, and looked at the equipment listed in his signature. For some reason, this time, one line in it stood out. "EQ6 + HEQ5 (White and Black)".
Thinking about that, I switched it around to the order it's normally said in. Black & White. Then for some reason, I thought of the blended scotch whisky. From there, it was easy to make the connections to name my scope. SkyWatcher, SW, Scotch Whisky.
