Thanks Tom, this might be a better bet than what I have seen so far.
The scope is a little odd in that it has a focuser that shifts the
position of the secondary mirror back and forth along the major
optical axis of the scope rather than lifting the eyepiece up and down
like a standard R&P. There is only one focus knob, and not a lot of
clearance to add a larger knob, although that would certainly help.

This page discusses the scope and shows the unique focuser
arrangement:

Mark, my experience with them is that if they don't have what you want
- they'll make it.

Good luck...
