Bintel 150mm EQ reflector with drive - reduced to $200

For sale, a Bintel 150mm newtonian reflector, purchased December 2005. Includes:
  • 150mm OTA with rack and pinion focuser
  • equatorial mount
  • drive motor for tracking
  • finderscope and polar scope for alignment
  • TELRAD base but no TELRAD
  • bintel 9mm and 25mm plossl eyepieces;
  • screw protruding from one of the OTA rings, allowing a camera to be mounted piggy-back - see photos (camera not included)
  • wheeled box for storage
  • manual.
In good condition, a few minor cosmetic issues:
- cap for polar scope is missing (doesn't affect operation)
- I drilled some holes near the focuser so I could install a crayford focuser, then changed my mind. The holes are covered with masking tape and don't affect operation.

Selling because I've bought a 10-inch dob and need to clear some space.

$250 reduced to $200, pickup only from Canberra.

Cheers,
Rob
