Hi,
It's the worry wort again. I noticed a sound when moving the ota upon investigating its source I noticed that when shaking the tube, a shaking sound comes from the objective side of the ota. The lens cell is tight. Any ideas ? Is it normal? If not, what could it be and what should I do about it?

Itz, it seems that your scope is cursed, many bad things will happen to you till it is cleansed. The good news is I can help, I know an anceint rite that really works, if you send me the scope I should have it uncursed in 3 to 4 months.... 8)

It sounds like the lens cell might be a little lose, which may or may not be a bad thing. are you hearing a tiny noise or is thier a lot of shaking or vibrating? also give Orion a call monday they have a great service dept.

What I know, the public does not approve, and what is approved, I know to be error.
