[ATMoB-discuss] Tom Britton's Scope

[David Aucoin]

The reason why I know what the scope looks like, is because when I first 
joined the club, I used that scope for almost a year before I got my hands 
on Alex Khein's 10 incher after I traded the 6" Dybamax to him for it. As 
some of you may remember, I bought a Meade 2045 Schmidt Cass, traded that to 
Leo Jennings for his Dynamax 6, traded the 6" for Alex's 10 inch Dob and 
then sold the dob and bought the first 13" from someone out in Framigham.

So thats why I know what Tom's scope looks like. I remember it well...the 
last time I saw it was more than 10 years ago. I am not sure if the Poncet 
platform still worked or not, but that scope gave some pretty good views. My 
first view of m35 was through that scope. And I also hada the opportunity to 
use the club's 16" quite extensively for the first 2 years I was in the 
club.
