G'day Ross,
I'm in Glenhaven
The ETX Series are all 1.25 and the eyepiece that came with the scope is the standard 26mm Super Plossl.
I made the dew shield from Clark Rubber 10mm semi rigid foam. I works very well.
Everything is in perfect working order now. I had a problem with power to the system and the control panel was replaced. All systems were tested, cleaned and checked by Bintel 2 years ago and I have hardly used it since. Meade have recently reintroduced the ETX, but I understand , only in the 90mm primary and made in China without the UHTC.
