Default RCX400 arrives

At least all is safely gathered in. A few surprises though. There is no
power supply of any form. The user has to provide batteries (highly not
recommended due to much increased current drain) or you have to buy a
suitable 12v PSU. Curious eh?

I found that my Milburn wedge does not fit the new base despite assurances
that it was compatible; well yes, the wedge may fit on without the three
supporting bolts! A few other minor surprises but still looks like a very
nice scope.
