Greg. I have no problem with your personal preferences on CCD's etc. but spreading falsehoods doesn't do anyone any favors.

Mate.....This is just nonsense.

The STX chamber is fully sealed.

PS. Bert, apologies this is not relevant to your thread

My STX is sealed, dessiccated... and filled with Argon to boot.

In what way do you think an STX isn't sealed?

Do FLI or Apogee use epoxy rather than o-rings??

If the STX wasn't sealed it would ice-up on every use...clearly not the case as there are many examples of fully functioning STX's out there.
