As an aside, many sources recommend winding the mirror back as far as it will go (with many clockwise turns of the focus knob - taking it way out of focus) before moving SCTs any large distance e.g. car trips to country sites. It seats the mirror against the back of the tube assembly, keeps it more stable and puts less strain on the primary baffle in the case of any severe knocks.
