I guess this is slightly OT, but I figure someone here might be interested. I'd love to have the scope myself, but it is rather heavy, and shipping it to Houston would be risky due to the huge number of tubes. (Close to 50 individual tubes IIRC.) This is a rack-mount scope, and it comes with a type CA plug-in. It is located near Santa Cruz, CA just south of Silicon Valley. If anyone is interested, contact me off-list and I will pass on contact information. -Toth
