Rigel QuickFinder Circular Patterns (Different)
      07/08/08 07:37 AM

I have 2 Rigel Quick finders. One is brand new and the other one, just purchased use is somewhat older. Both work fine but the older one has a different looking illuminated circle pattern. Not knowing the background of the Rigel Quick Finders Im of the opinion they must have changed the double circular illuminated pattern somewhere along the way? My new Rigel has a 1/2 degree and 2 degree "Solid" Red Circles, the older Rigel has a different looking pattern. It looks like 2 circles that are made up of dots and its also has something that looks like cross hairs. Were the early Rigels like this?

Can anyone shed some info on this issue?
