Thanks for the comparison Brett. I have never used an AP mount but I am a huge fan of anything Roland Christen makes. He's a genius and a perfectionist and also an imager so its a no risk buy getting his gear.
My AP140 scope is perfection.

Yes the little levelling knobs of the PME are a nice touch and perhaps not worth much and would have been nice on the PMX although PMX has bit in level that PME does not.

I find PEC turns almost round stars into round stars on my PME so its worth the extra work to install it. Its not really that time consuming (well, if it all goes well that is!).

Mind you I would be one of those who would be willing to pay a few hundred bucks more if the PMX or PME came preloaded with PEC like AP mounts do. Also it means the manufacturer can setup the PEC perfectly rather than perhaps some small compromises out in the field.

Greg.
