[Astromelb]

FOR SALE - LOSMANDY G11 EQUATORIAL MOUNT WITH GEMINI 2 GO TO

I have a lightly used Losmandy G11 Equatorial mount with Gemini 2 GoTo control system for sale
Supply includes G11 Mount, Gemini 2 GoTo Control system, original Losmandy counterweight shaft, original Losmandy 21 Lb counterweight, original heavy duty Losmandy field tripod, plus power connections and cables

System also features an upgrade of significance - an Ovision worm on the RA axis. These are an upgrade that many experienced astronomy enthusiasts go for, and is expensive, as it enables three times the accuracy of a standard Losmandy RA worm, and thereby extreme high accuracy to be available of down to the 5 arc secs accuracy range

Supply is in original Losmandy packaging

Suits someone wanting an exceptional mount including the Gemini 2 GoTo control and also with the added feature of having an ultra high accuracy worm Ovision being fitted to the RA axis

Same unit is available from Bintel (without the Ovision worm) for $ 4,899 - link - http://www.bintel.com.au/Mounts---Tripods/EQ-Mounts/Losmandy-G11-G/90/productview.aspx

An Ovision worm will cost you US$ 856 plus shipping, then you fit it - link - http://www.ovision.com/Losmandy_PresentationNS_english.htm l

Price $ 3,000

Shipment available nationally by courier at cost

Thanks for looking

Dear Jeff,
Thank you for the enquiry. I have a Mountain Instruments MI250, an ASA DDM 85 Direct drive (no guiding required) and it's brother an ASA DDM 60 Direct drive (again no guiding) that I use for most of my work. The G11 is not going to get used as I use the other Eq mounts for all my needs.
Trust this clarifies.
