Marj, Today, I was just thinking about that marvellousaccomplishment ... and he hasn’t even gotten to the Moon yet. Then again, Elon missed the chance to put an AP-3200 and AP scope on

Hi Greg, Alex was asking about a CCDWare upgrade purchase, not the free upgrade for AP mount owners with a V2 license. There are no special security requirements with the CCDWare version because the
