GSO RC6 f/9 Ritchey-Chrétien OTA now $350

GSO branded metal tube RC6 and new Astrophysics CCDT67 reducer (reducer sold 17/5)

Telescope tube is clean with only minor external marks. Inside is dust-free. Mirrors clean and clear. Comes with original vixen top & bottom rails, focuser, extension tubes, finder bracket (shoe) and dust caps.

I've only used this 'scope for visual, I can't vouch for its AP capabilities. Having said that, it does nicely show the collimation hall-of-mirrors effect and I have plate solved to confirm nominal 1370mm focal length. My intention of using this for AP unfortunately won't happen, my limited telescope time is now being spent visual. Selling to help fund a nice double-star refractor.

$400 for the RC6 OTA

Located in Parkdale, bayside Melbourne.

Inspection welcome and encouraged. I do have the original OTA packaging.

Please PM expressions of interest.

Regards, Dean
