Powermate Question

Posted By Clinton Tower

Can a Powermate be used before the diagonal or does it have to be inserted into the diagonal and then the eyepiece inserted into the Powermate? I own a C6-R so for balance reasons it would be almost imperative that the Powermate be used between the drawtube and diagonal. I use a 20mm Nagler T2 and hopefully in the next few weeks a 31mm Nagler T5 (see my want ad in the classifieds, thoes who want to sell one or know someone who does, PLEASE!). Otherwise I will be looking for a 5 or 3.5 mm Nagler T6 for high mag. work.

Thanks for any replies.
