Hi all,
Having another go at finding a 114mm f/4.4 or a 125/130mm f/5 parabolic primary mirror.
So far everything I've seen here in Oz have been all spherical mirrors, despite the advertising spin from the manufacturer saying "parabolic". Only exception was a Vixen OTA that i came so close to buying, but I couldn't bring myself to cannibalize the mirror from that lovely OTA. I'm still hopeful someone does have a parabolic mirror in the size I'm after. May well have to resort to cannibalism otherwise...
May even consider a 150mm f/4 parabolic.
Thanks for looking,
Alex.
