Greg,

My comments are more specifically AP rather than visual.

I think you should be comparing the TEC160FL with a TOA150 not the TEC160ED in terms of colour correction.

The FL is/was more expensive than the ED too !

Where are the strehl ratio specs and the longitudinal chromatic aberration charts for the TEC to support this.

The aperture increase is 14% more light - sure its worth something (more for visual than AP) but not if the colour correction and strehl are not in the same league.

The TOA150 is near perfectly corrected from IR to UV and a strehl ratio of 99.2% (theoretical perfect is 100%) making it a perfect maging scope.

But I am sure its a nice scope

Cheers

Rally

PS When does it arrive !!!
