[QUOTE="magneticanomaly, post: 634464, member: 45533"] Thank you very much, Mr. Boyd! I believe you have solved my problem. I took the scope out this afternoon, and bearing in mind the way you dscribed the working of the one you were familiar with, I studied my images again. Apparently,it works exactly like yours, only instead of a fully split field with the lower half right-side-up and the upper upside-down, my upside-down upper "half" is just a little box. But I had not paid attention to the fact that the lower edge of my small, upside-down image was actually at the horizontal center-liner of the entire field After I realized this, it became relatively easy to choose a feature of the landscape and align its upside-down reflection with its rightside-up bottom half. I still need to come up with some sort of solid mounting or it so that I can see if the vertical position of the inset (top, upside-down) image can be or needs to be tweaked, and then I should find some measured distances to test it on (I read objects today out to plausible ranges of 560 M), but , again, THANK YOU, I have an instrument I can use.
