still for sale - SynScan EQ5 Goto Upgrade - now including mount

still for sale....

EQ5 synscan goto upgrade.
will suit Vixen GP-type mounts and other EQ5's - Orion Skyview Pro, Skywatcher etc

(I had it connected to an Orion Skyview Pro EQ5 - see photo attached mount not included in price.)

bought Nov 2009
selling as I am going to upgrade my mount

Firmware is V3.27
All original packaging and receipt

includes USB to serial adapter that I bought from Dontronics (cost me $45.00) that will allow EQMOD to control the mount

Was $500 plus postage

NOW $450 INCLUDING POSTAGE


=================================== ================

if you want the mount too I will included it for the total price of $500 - I will ship via courier at buyers expense, but would prefer pickup. The synscan on its own I can post anywhere.

The mount and the synscan cost me over $1000. I have extra counterweights - four in total - 2 large, 2 small. There is no polarscope.

I will split the package:

- The mount plus synscan for $500
- The synscan on its own for $450.

I will not sell the mount on its own - if someone doen't want to take the whole package, I have a budding astronomer who lives near me who I could give it to.

I will post more detailed pics of the mount probably tonight.
