Hi James, Thanks for your input. I haven't come to any conclusion about where the fault lies. I just know the problem is with that dovetail plate and my DAs....
It probably looks like a straw on a gorilla's head. Sorry, it's the only analogy I could think of. :) I put the SV80S by itself on my MI-250 once. I think I...
Welcome to the forum and congradulations on your new SV80S. I hope you will post pictures of you new Stablelock and Miyauchi binoculars. I'd be interested to...

Hi, Mary. Thanks for the welcome. I teach at St. John's College in Santa Fe, New Mexico. We are at ~7500 ft here, so you'd think that would make for good...
Hello My name is Dave, Has anyone any experience with the SV5? Its a toss between that and the TEC 140, both companys enjoy an excellent reputation and would...
My name is Scott and I'm a new member to the Stellarvue board. I just put on order an SV90TBV! Everything I've read about this scope has been fantastic! I'm...
Jacques, I'm thinking that the waitlist Jennifer sent you is probably correct. I think the post from Vic was more directed at those who have already been on...
