Hi Jonathan,

I found a web site here: http://www.dangl.at/ausruest/eq8/eq8_e4.htm that has the EQ8 in all it's nakedness. I am not game to pop the covers for fear of voiding warranty etc. so will await Tasco's guidance on the matter.

Again I would be interested to see if you have a normal area during the rotation and a loose area as my mount???

I am sure you live about 15 minutes away so maybe I could pop in one day and compare the two mounts??? PM me if you think this would be okay??

Cheers

Anthony

I have planned to pop the covers off and have a look at the worm one day, but that day has yet to come - Looks like you are going to be the first to peek
