Hi,
I was surprised to read in an Astromart ad the following statement regarding a for sale FS 102:
"Note that this scope is made with the earlier, higher-quality flourite glass that is no longer made. The lower-quality flourite is marked w/ a blue ring around the dew shield."
I just purchased a new 102 last week with a blue ring. Is there something I'm missing? Did I not do my homework on this scope? In all the reviews, literature etc this "lower-quality flourite" was never mentioned. What gives? Thanks,
Michael
