  Yes, you're right; I suffered a temporary mental lapse.  The IR tubes ARE
a good deal cheaper; I picked up two (horribly obsolete) Vietnam vintage
tubes a few years back for $70 each.  They require a fairly powerful IR
illuminator to work, though.  I keep hoping the cost of MCP-based devices
will drop......

  Incidentally, I've heard that US military image intesifiers are availble
on the Saudi black market for $1600 per; guess a few boxes of 'em fell off
a truck......
