I've caught aperture fever so it's time to upgrade. I therefor have the following for sale:
Meade 8" LX90 GPS (UHTC).
This telescope is in excellent condition. It was purchased new in May, 2007 and works flawlessly. It has been serviced at Bintel (in order to fix a Dec gear shudder which was resolved by replacing the dec gear assembly).
I have fitted Bobs collimation knobs, Peterson's Dec clutch upgrade & Peterson's focus upgrade.
It comes with the following extras / addons
- Custom made counter balance system.
- Meade #505 Autostar cable kit.
- External 12VDC Power transformer
- Meade 26mm Series 4000 EP (standard inclusion with the scope)
- Meade 18mm Series 5000 UWA EP
- Orion 12.5mm illuminated reticle eyepiece
- Bintel 3 x ED Barlow
- Meade LPI camera with Autostar Suite software
- SC 1.5 (with Amp Off) Logitech Quickcam 3000 Webcam with Mogg Eyepiece adapter
- Introduction to Webcam Astrophotography book (Reaves)
- Meade #1209 Microfocuser
- JMI Motofocus
- Meade #909 APM
- OTA DSLR camera mounting bracket
- 12 VDC Orion Dew Strap
- Alluminium Carry Case
- Foam Dew Shield
I am offering all of the above as a single package only for $3,000 (or best offer) + shipping.
