Hi Marcus. Not sure I can offer any assistance with the fact you are a Vic
. But welcome to the forum. We can help you with other things... Use an LX200 scope myself and love it... I know they say it always rains in Melbourne so imaging can be a problem, but be assured it ain't a whole lot better here in Adelaide. Soon I will have a mint condition vintage scope with few signs of use
Welcome to the forum
