The original Coronados (Isle of Man) are much better.

Thanks Derek

This SM60 is excellent. I tried it again this morning with fantastic results. All etalons are different and the combo etalon/BF can also make a big difference. I normally use a Coronado BF30 with most of my Pre Meade Coronado etalons and with my LUNT60 as well.
