The money has been spent, the clouds are already here.
The buy is not Phillips, this is a local purchase in NZ but I will check out his SCT fittings.
Temp won't be a problem as it will live outside in the Ob on the EQ6. I will be making up a side by side plate to mount it to so I can get guiding through the 80F5 working. Solar system imaging is part of the plan but I'd like to get better galaxy imaging as well. Imaging will be at 1'25" with either the 120mc or the 1600 mm-c, more options to experiment with.
I have a 32mm 2" EP and a selection down to 6mm & 9mm TMB Planetarys plus 15 and 20mm Superviews. Also a Lanthanum 8-24 zoom. Should give me some options, with my dud eyes imaging is more the plan than visual.
Rings, I'll make my own, I have the equipment and time.
