Sold: Meade ETX125 UHTC Classic, $850

Meade ETX125 UHTC Classic with standard features: computerised go-to, UHTC, 26mm eyepiece, right-angle finder, alt-az and equatorial ability, 497 controller, tripod (not shown in photos), instructions. Meade blue tube ... no graphics!

Included extras: Meade dew shield, 12V cig. connector, Orion 5-in Dew Zapper, Flexi-focus attachment (a great improvement), Thousand Oaks full-aperture solar filter film in home-made mount (safe and effective), home-made counterweight (prevents front-heaviness), plastic storage container with cut-out high density foam and fitted snap-lock straps.

Purchased new September 2006 in Sydney, good condition, very minor marks on corrector, does not affect the high quality performance. This version doesn't have 'level north' device ... just use a spirit level and magnetic compass. Tripod bag has one faulty zip as I suspect most do.

Reason for sale: going to 8-in SCT. Keen to give this great scope a new home before I move house, thus priced to sell at $850. (Current new price of the 125PE by itself is around $1400).

Pick-up only, Bondi. PM me, or phone 0412 580 162.
