8 Inch Meade LX90 (Tasmania)

Just a note to let folks know this telescope is for sale in Tasmania. I think delivery and postage is out of the question here so local pickup.

It is circa 2003 and and it can come with a wedge for polar mounting if you choose to set it up as an equatorial mount.

Reason for sale is that I am looking at an upgrade. This telescope would suit reasonably experienced amateur but certainly you would not need advanced skills.

Price $700 ($100 extra with wedge)

Includes 26mm, 12.4mm and 6.4mm Meade plossyls, 1.25inch diagonal and extension for a 2 inch diagonal.
Also comes with a dew cap, Star GPS, dew straps on main scope and finderscope and "Dewnot" controller.

Pretty much you will be set for observing in the damp dewy Tasmanian winter.

Cheers

Michael
