Finally after weeks, got my TV85 up and running. If you have an 85 you may have a different length tube, which may change your gear. Anyhow, Jupiter with 3X barlow showed more detail in banding 2 nites ago than I'd ever seen, can't wait to try my 9.25SCT. I spent a long time on m-42 last nite, hmmm 2 eyes showed more than, I guess you all know already, comfy indeed. Balance is a problem though. Wondering if anyone has bino apparatus on a TV101. BTW thanks for the entertainment. I do miss my daytime soaps. Mid-time lurker, this is my first post. Dial me if you have bino TV 85 focus blues. Mike

"Wondering if anyone has bino apparatus on a TV101."
Mike, I used em on a genesis SDF. Same focal length. (I've also used em on a TV102, ED80, Pronto, and a dozen other small scopes.) With the SDF they give great widefield views. The only issue I had was that I keenly felt the want for more aperture on DSO's.
