Does it have an OMI mirror and if so what is the mirror number. I will direct you to the mirror specs.

Thanks John, I thought you might approve!

I've attached the mirror stats. It will be interesting to see how it performs once the sky gets clear

While I have confidence that the mirror will be okay (better than okay but you know what I mean), I don't put a lot of stock in the data sheet...the proof will be in the way it works at night!

Now I'll just have to see what additions must be made to my eyepiece case...
