Re dodgy 20x80LW nocs

G'day Mick

The misalignment problem with your new 20x80's may not be as big a problem as it seems. If you peel back the rubber on the top of the prism housings (facing the eyepieces) you will find an adjusting screw on both housings. Give these a tweak with a flat-blade jewellers screwdriver until the two images merge. From your description its the right side that needs adjusting but trial and error should fix it. I had the same problem recently. Hope this helps. (There is a pic of the collimation screws on--I think-- Cloudy Nights web page). Don't despair, I'm sure the vendor will make an exchange if this doesn't work.

Cheers mate
