Thanks, Kenny! I'm thinking these will get a lot of good use over the long haul. Unfortunately, it looks like it's going to be a bad fire season this year if this last month is any indicator. Things have been OK so far in Nevada but just over the mountain from here is the Zone of Conflagration otherwise known as California! I could use a dose of the cool, green countryside you call home. The British Isles this isn't!!
Wayne, the finders have gone the way of the 55x eyepieces; luckily my skies here at home reach mag 6 so I usually have enough stars to triangulate with a RDF. I've become used to the multi-reticle finder I use on the 80mm apo so another one on the binoculars isn't much of a stretch. I'm down to one optical finder now, a 10x50 Vixen which I use on the C9.25. I still use a Telrad with it more!
It's time to take a break and enjoy my current binocular inventory as it is more than adequate for now (I didn't say eyepieces!). My wife already considers me deranged. ;^)
Best regards,
Rich V
