Subject: Meade f3.3 FRs...

Hi Milton, following on from my message to you privately today I`ve been re-investigating f3.3 focal reducers. I got a good deal of advice on these on the SCT user group a while ago & I think the consensus was that the new version of the Meade f3.3 FRs were OK but the older version was a bit suspect?I may have it the wrong way around. I`ve been looking at this link I believe you sent me;http://benedict.isomedia.com/homes/cvedeler/scope/focal_reducers.htm

This is the place I got my Antares f6.3 FR & looks like a good deal for them; http://www.agenaastro.com/Meade-f-3-3-Focal-Reducer-and-Variable-T-Adapter-p/ofr-me-3.3fr.htm

What do you think? Mark.
