C6N-GT

Is anyone using the C6N-GT and can make any comments about the performance of the optical tube and the mount?

I have been using my C6N for several years. The optics appear to be excellent (I do visual observing only) but it's a bit of a bear to collimate because of the push-pull system of adjustmet that they use. Even when slightly out of collimation I get nice, tight stars.

Mine is on an EQ3 mount with wooden legs. Very stable.

Just thought I would mention that your black on black theme is very difficult for someone like me who has some retinal damage and other eye problems.
