Hello "Bob", yes I remember them, the proprietor was Terry Pearce who I believe is now one of the directors of Vacuum Coatings. They made, amongst other things, Schmidt-Cassegrain telescopes which was a bit ambitious at the time. I have one of their early 8" SCT's but no mount so can't comment on those.
