Wanted 'Dead' Meade ETX 90

[Iain]

Hi looking for a Meade ETX90 that has its electrics working OK. Really only need the drive base unit. Don't need a tripod, don't need the optical tube or the hand controller or anything else. Now where might such an item lurk, or where else might I look. No use going to a meade agency as (in NZ), they are just not interested.

Great New Year everyone.

Let me revise this:) I'm actually looking for an ETX 90 that has met with an accident where perhaps the OTA is now unrepairable. My etx90 has both motor drives non operational :shrug: so i want to gather the bits up and hopefully get mine going again.

Cheers

Hi Iain,
Welcome aboard.
Try Astromart, you often see folk selling just the base sections.
