Hi Les

I have a short tube SkyWatcher 80mm f/5 suitable for a guidescope.
It includes a red dot finder, 2 eye pieces, basic mount and 45d star diag.

I have used it you guide my 12 and 10inch LX200s with an Orion StarShoot guider and PHD successfully.

The scope is not great for photogarphy or viewing but works as a guider / finder.

It is now surplus to my needs.


$150 ono.
