So by sheer coincidence all the items arrived today.

Scope and Ethoses.

Set it up and sneaked a peak at the moon with the included 40mm eyepiece and a very brief look with the 13mm Ethos. Bad seeing conditions with much shimmering at the moon's edges and craters.

I only have one problem now.

When I asked whether the 2" star diagonal would fit onto the CPC I was told yes.

Not so. The scope comes with a 1.25" visual back.

I'm assuming I need a 2" visual back - however my 2" Televue star diagonal has an internal thread and the supplied 1.25" visual back has thumb screws to tighten in the supplied 1.25" diagonal.

What do I need to buy to make the CPC scope marry up to the Televue Everbrite 2" star diagonal?

Sorry that this is probably a very basic question...
