Glenn,

 

I called Anacortes just a bit ago.  They're in-state for me, got my current 'astrograph' there.

Not much more info.  I'll wait for more intel on this one.

Mike:

 

I heard Williams optics surpass Borg optics. But I also heard Chevys surpass Fords, which is not evidently true.

 

The guy who made that comment, however, had owned both and was a good optician.

 

I also heard that the older Russian made ones were supposed to be better.

 

They are supposed to be apochromatic. Check it out.
