Planetary imager made it in one piece...

I have been tracking this little jewel since ordering it off ebay. Funny thing is that it still shows that it has not been shipped and is still in Los Angeles. Parcel Post for you. At any rate, I was very surprised when my wife brought it inside today as the projected delivery time was on the 18th. Not to look a gift horse in the mouth, I immediately tore into it. All metal construction, this thing is solid and looks/feels indestructible. C mount lens, and even has a .5 focal reducer. Very cool. Manual on CD though, but hey, kindof expected that. Of course with the speedy delivery of new astro equipment comes the obligatory cloud cover. Stay tuned for first light report when WX decides to cooperate...
