Been gone for a while due to change of jobs and now have my own connection to the web. I seems that there are not many people that are desirous of working with refractor design because of the color problems. Reflectors give colorfree views and are easier to move around. My 200" refractor (see RTMC pages and the brochure for this year for a picture of me and it) is not the easiest thing to set up. I do do some work with refractors and have a set of glass for a 6.5" and am also working on a set of glass for a 12". Please let me look back and see if I can see the question and I might be able to answer it.
