Ok, sanity seems to have prevailed (partially). I'm going for a 24mm Pan with a decent mirror diagonal for my 80mm f/5 shorty. I used the scope last Saturday night on Mt. Pinos with a cheapo 20mm 70 degree afov eyepiece and a 45 degree erect image diagonal and was pleased with the result. I've placed an ad in the Eyepieces section looking to trade my 17mm T4 for a 24 Pan with a mirror diagonal if anyone is interested:
