Hi all, as some of you know I'd been having collmination issues. Well Yesterday I nailed the problem & it was not collmination.

The problem was the focal distants from the secondary mirror to the primary mirror. What was happening was I was trying to focus an already out of focus image.

I'm sure you guys have a technical name for this but I don't know it.

Last night I viewed the Orion nebula with the 6.5mm instead of the 30mm for the first time & it was Fantastic...

So. I'll claim last night as FIRST LIGHT.

Thanks for all your help.

Doug
