Thanks Chris & Eddgie! The people on this forum are invaluable in so many ways...
The spots REALLY did look like chips in the coatings, so I know what you mean Eddgie. I was amazed when they came right off with the alcohol.
I'm going to clean my other two eyepieces before I go out again. I've been baffled by a false color problem on bright objects and I'm wondering if its just a film on the lenses?
My other project is to find out if flocking the inside of the baffle tube will cut down on the flaring I'm getting when a bright object (like Jupiter) goes just outside the field of view.
Since the move I've been observing way more, and now the tinkering has begun!
