The conditions on the central coast over the past few nights have been very dewy, and i actually put my newt away after the first clear night because the secondary fogged over (no dew heater on it), been using the Mak-newt since as it is easy to heat the corrector. I suspect you have a foggy secondary, hard to tell on solid tube scopes unless you pull the camera and look, might be able to tell by the reflection from the primary if you look in the front. Do you have a good dew shield for this new scope? A dew shield will buy you some time, will not prevent it just delay it.
