Thanks Steve. I put my name down very early in the list's creation which I think was about 4 years ago. It was released at a NEAF so that would put it at April around 4 or 5 years ago.

Generally speaking the stars are perfect from the scope. If there are errors its from tracking (wind) or from slight imperfections in the mounting of my camera and filter wheel due to some mods I did to my filter wheel a little while ago. I have a 7 position filter wheel ordered to replace it.

The scope creates images that look like they are from an APO refractor.
Speed of gaining an image is very appealing given travel, weather etc.

I think ideally it would be mounted on a PME but the PMX is doing fine if everything is just so.

Greg.
