I would leave it where it is, Ed. As long as it's a great tube, who cares what the numbers aresniper0161 wrote:Hello George, not had the tube out yet had the eyepiece out and the front lens can't see no markings just bright silver both sides of the tube but it's a cracking bit of kit real bright tube maybe if i take out the tube it will be marked up round the edge.

Some nice bits of kit there fellaFamiliar with the MaxiKite and heard some very good reports about the Longbow. It's got a lot of fans.
Heard a lot about the Mini N-Seas mono, but not had any dealings with it. What tube do you have in it?
Enjoy the forum.

It's funny really, 'cos tubes can be quite a personal thing to your eyes, just like scopes. My eyes prefer a bright image all of the time and I really don't mind if a unit is fitted with manual gain or not, as I don't turn them down.
It's just like the fact that a great tube can be unimpressive when fitted to a body which has poor glass, and vice versa.
