  Scope upgrade is 50% done.                                                November 07   

    AVS had a powerbuy on b-stock Panamorph U85 lenses. I got one and a Chief mount. I will have to move my projector back to get the screen width where I want it with a VC lens, such as the U85. An HE lens would get me there now, but they are 4 times as expensive, even with a powerbuy. I also plan on replacing the projector, so the new one may work in the current mounting location.

    The installation couldn't have gone easier; Chief makes a good mount. The picture now has much more vivid colors. I'm quite happy with my minimal investment. I just want my screen to stay 45" high. At 16x9 it's 80: wide. At 2.40 it'll be 108" wide. I have it marked up on the wall. I'm just waiting for a new projector.
