love the Baader Skysurfer V RDF beast!

Hi,
I love the Baader Skysurfer V RDF beast! Easy to align, very easy to use and built like a German tank! I don't even take the protective caps off when using it as they are perfectly transparent, plus the finder becomes rather long on my Borg travelscope if I attach the dew shields. The miriad of light intensities from 1-11 are a bit of overkill as I usually flick the dial straight to 5, but comes in handy for smaller objects or day time. For me, a flat dovetail foot would be easier to mount on the Borg block than the curved one supplied, but it is also of excellent quality and the curve would undoubtedly suit other scopes.
Regards, J.
