Hi Steve, Curious about your comment on not going back to SCT's. Could you please expand. I have had my share of disappointments with a C-8 and C-11. Mostly Resolution and collimation, but thought it was just me. I have always been paertial to Refractors - cannot beat the sharpness with them even if smaller aperature. I have a Unitron 4" Photo Equatorial and love it. Just not very portable. Your reasons would be greatly appreciated. If don't want to post here, ok to write privately to Jim@ThePerfectYou.us.. Thanks!

A couple of weeks ago there was a 16" LX-200 listed on KSL. Owned by someone in the St. George area. I know some of you may have seen it. Do you happen to know who had it for sale and how I might reach them? Not me, I'm not going back to SCT's but I just sold a scope to a fellow I know in California who is looking for a 16" but must be UHTC. I told him I would put out some feelers. Let me know if you know who it was will you?
