Ok so, success! I now know what you mean about balancing though... even when I turned the focus knob (?) the scope would drift a bit. I'll check those links out and learn how to set it up, thanks for those. With the 20mm it was fantastic I could see all the moon and it was most dramatic looking at the edge. The image was very clear with this piece. I didn't really wait for any temperature adjustment just went straight into it. My eyes aren't what they were 3-4 years ago though. It took me a while just to get used to looking in the piece. With the 6.5mm I could get it to focus (just) on craters on the edge of the moon. It felt like they were popping out at me and I could see over the edge and into them. Great stuff But it was a lot blurrier than the 20mm. I gather dust would affect this piece a lot more more but also my lack of experience. Still I can not believe how clear it was with the amount of dust that is on that diagonal. Thanks for the help. I will keep posting as I go
