Hello Dear Karl
Thank you very much for perfectly adjusted and collimated scope. I have used it durin last year as my main scope (6"SCT has collected dust and finally I have sold it).
In brief: Although it is doublet ED it is really close to triplet APO - i have observed no chromatism up to 150-160x and only a hint above. Stars are crisp in 95%FOV without any visible astigmatism. Focuser works smoothly likewise extendable dew shield.
I use this scope with Orion RACI 6x30 finder, 1,25 99% WO diagonal and 24mm Meade SWA 68* and have no problems in star hopping (AT Voyager Alt-Az Mount). For middle and high power i use 18mm UWA 82*, 11mmES82*, 8mmTVRadian, 5,5mmUWA82* and 4,4mm Siebert SS3 mod. ortho.
I am very satisfied with the whole setup. Astro-Proff102ED exceeded my expectations, and I think it earned the high note in cost/effectiveness category.
I wrote longer review at http://astropolis.pl/topic/39778-astro-professional-102ed-na-voyagerze-mobilny-zestawik/ (polish forum).
Thanks again for your advice and service.
Best regards and clear skies
