Carlton,
I am very pleased to hear you are so happy with your new scope. As you say, there is a lot of thought and time that has gone into the design. And I don't work alone with this. I work very closely with Sergei and other people to make sure that the design is optimal and vetted before implementing, so your experience with the instrument is a pleasant and productive one.
I can't wait to read about your dark sky experience with it!
Alex,
