Thanks guys
Lou: My first telescope had also a similar mount (1973). It is a 4" Royal Astro reflector (Japan) and I still have it
This Tasco is similar to the Unitrons (OTA and focuser). It is a good performer and I will use it to image the sun as well

It used to be much better 3o years ago but the light pollution in my backyard is not heavy. I can still see the milky way. Usually I get readings of around 19 with my SQM (Sky Quality Meter)

They want me to return the etalon to be repaired free of charge. The only problem is that I have to do a temporary export and that will cost at least 500 US$... Not sure what to do
