Takahashi FC76DCSV-Q F12.7 @ 965mm

Postie surprised me on Canberra Day Public Holiday ..............

With thanks to Claude at A.E.C. (Takahashi Australia) the last piece of my latest puzzle arrived safe and well and at an excellent price. In fact to buy this from the USofA would have cost $400 more.

The finished (?) scope set up for white light solar viewing consists of:
FC76 F7.5 Objective unit
FS60CSV 105mm optical tube
FS60C Focuser
Tak-Kunama adapter (M55.9 > 2"SCT thread)
Baader 2" ClickLock Adapter
Baader 2" Cool Ceramic Herschel Solar Prism

and it all packs into a medium sized camera bag

Takahashi also very thoughtfully include a new identification plate for the FC76D to replace the one on the focuser
