Steve,

Yup, and it adds another $150 to the price, and the blocking diagonal is 
absolutely required for it to work.  They probably should not do the pricing 
that way.

But the 60mm f/10 comes complete for $899, and that scope will prove to be a 
big seller if it's as good as it looks.  Since contrast is everything in solar 
H-alpha viewing, I bet the removal of the central obstruction is going to 
result in a big improvement over Coronado's offerings.
