Rich,
I suppose the reflection in the objective suggests poor coatings. Do the foil spacers suggest anything bad? What about the steep curves? Bill "RichA" wrote in message ...

Bill I doubt the coatings are poor, but can't say. They look red in the picture so that's different. Foil spacers won't hurt. Steep curves mean no lateral displacement will be tolerated!  -Rich
