[ATM] Second Secondary
At the suggestion of some, I dug up a telescope.
I found an old Mossberg M4D 4x scope I first used as a kid on my very first 22 caliber rifle. Works fine except at 14" in length it's a bit
unwieldy. As a proof of concept, however, it did demonstrate what many of you have been proposing.
The bad news is that my engineering workstation dropped dead last night in th middle of defragging some hard drives.
It won't power up and sequence the bios even though some LED's and the all the drives are operating. The CPU fan is silent as is the
fan in the power supply.
Initial diagnostics suggest a failure in the motherboard (Intel P4) or (hopefully) a bad connection in one of the power connectors. It' s
been trouble free for three years so I can't complain.
I don't believe I've lost any data so I am not unduly concerned. but it will be a little while before I can resume this dialogue or send any
requested geometry or specs on the mirror geometry.
Thanks all for your generous support. I'll be back shortly (he said wishfully)
