I recently picked up an older Meade 2080 SCT on an equatorial mount, i have it mounted on my EQ6, so the mount is surplus to requirments and could go to another home.
Its an older mount, but still in good condition, and it has some good points to it, like drives in both axis etc and the drives jsut "clip" onto the side, although it has no autoguider port, and i dont know what the PEC on it is like. it has a polar alignment scope, The equatorial head is in very good condition, and this would be a great mount for someone wanting to do simple piggyback photography, or casual observing etc. Here its shown in the pictures (although it doesnt come with the SCT!!)
I will try to answer any questions, or post some pics, although i dont know much about it, although i doubt these are very common
Price? make me an offer, as everything is going towards Duncans QHY8 fund.
