Here are some shots of the new scope setup. Note the new Revelation 2" quartz diagonal mirror and the kendrik dew controller.
All I need now are some clear skies and the onset of Autumn.....

Green with envy John, you've got a very secure, heavy looking mount there too. Best wishes on your new astrotoy!
