I enjoyed the Lunt 60 PT for a couple of years. Venus Transit, and lotsa activity, when at Solar Max. Good views and images and user-friendly. Later got the 100mm, same good experience. Recall some comments regarding the ~new~ Coronado tuner feeling loose? Also comments regarding ghosting internal vs external etalon? Maybe someone else can describe. I imagine performance is comparable. Tom
