Re: [APML] C 9.25 for AP?

Hi Grant:
There are probably a lot of people on the list who have used the 9.25,
because its optical design (less magnification in the secondary) it is
reputed to be the best of the mass-produced SCTs. One name that comes to
mind as a user is Wil Milan. He's been too busy pursuing astronomy research
to participate on the list much lately, but he would probably be happy to
share his experience with you. Check out his address at his web site:

Hope this helps....
