Waiting patiently for the Docter!

Got my Feathertouch MPA from Wayne at Starlight this morning, smooth as silk again, they replaced all the internals and recalibrated the thing. Might put it on the TOA with the new pinion.
Actually Matt I am sure between the two of us we can do an excellent job of conducting a full review on Col's new eyepiece for him. I have used the 12.5mm Docter a few times but have never had one in my mitts long enough to do a full A/B comparison against all the competition. Between us we can provide plenty of eyepieces for comparison, I have a 12mm Nagler T4, a 13mm ETHOS, a 14mm Pentax XW and a 12.5mm UO HD orthoscopic. You have a 13mm Vixen LVW at least, plus others probably.

I have a couple of premium Newtonians and you have a couple of premium APO refractors. Someone would probably be able to turn up with a big SCT; but I think that might only make such a fine eyepiece squeal in pain as it came out of a newt or refractor focuser and fell into a big cat eye.

Cheers,
John B
