Weather's about to turn a bit wet, so no good way to take a picture of the acquisition in place, so

take a look over here.  After a lot of scraping managed to get the money together for a Series 2000.

Got it mounted(not myself for the bases, not when I know someone with a mill and more experience) and tried it out.  It nice.  One day the body and time will allow to get to a longer range and experiments shall be done.  And a proper picture will be taken.
