Hi Paul,
nah, sorry. In fact the G-11 is an overkill anyway, a GM-8 or GP/SP/CG5 would be more than enough.
Mewlons are reasonably popular in the States, and this is where this came from. New the 180 is about US$2500 or so.
When the seeing is good, it really has refractor like star images, and the few looks I have had at the moon so far have been awesome. I have just started webcamming with it, and a 2.5x Powermate is as much as you need (gives 5400mm focal length).
Deepsky imaging is difficult, with the f12 focal ratio, but there is a reducer available that gives f9.
