Received my j-pod and like it a lot. Couple suggestions:
First, I would like the top to be able to rotate and lock in differing positions. It came with bubbles not calibrated, so I calibrated the bubbles and then when I set up the face of the LS is directly over one of the legs when I screw it on. This means I can't see the screen directly while setting up, and have to straddle a leg to look at it comfortably. I can fix that easy enough but will have to re-calibrate bubbles after moving the bracket. However, I also like to spin it so it faces north correctly after getting it level (what I've been doing using the LS on a prism pole with bipod); can't do that in current configuration.
Second, it came with standard steel points. All the adds/info show the mace leg grip. Not even an option shown to get the standard steel points. I expected it to come with mace leg grips. Is there a shortage and they will be sent to me when available?
Thanks,
Duane
