 Orion XT10 Telescope Distortion?
For months I couldn't get my XT10 over 120x without the images distorting very bad. I have found out the problem that I was tighting down the mirror mount bolts to tight and twisting the mirror. Bryon at Orion tech was a huge help and friendly. He said to put a piece paper between the mirror and holding screws and just tighten them down until they just touch and you can pull out the paper. It worked! Great images and I can now use some power if i need it. Thanks everyone for your help and maybe this little hint my help you.
