Tak fan boys

Hi all , I love a jab at the Tak fan boys and here is one .

I have over the years owned and understood why Takahashi are so good ,,, it's because they are .

Anyway , this story is that some fanboy painted a GSO Voyager mount and it being a typical Chinese made great piece of engineering ended up with bad slop in both alt and Az .

Fast forward to a week ago when this sweety arrived , 20 minutes of adjusting and it's like new and owning one of these sweet mounts years ago I learned how to adjust these good mounts properly , here are a few photo of Friday night with the LP 110 f6 APO and tonight's 102mm f10 Achromat ,,, Both on the moon , Jupiter and Saturn and this 102mm achro scope really performs ,, and sits fine on this psudo Tak mount with ease .


Hopefully tomorrow the ED100 will be on mount .This glass is Tak quality . Like my iStar .
Photo's tomorrow , and the weather is co-operating .

Brian.
