1/6 or 1/8 wave
What "Deluxe scopes"? The company is defunct.
And, obviously, a 1/4 wave Pyrex primary mirror will be nowhere near
that at the eyepiece.

Sounds like false advertising to me. Lets sue em!
And even if you had 1/8 wave at the mirror surface, you would have far
less at the eyepiece, right??
