SOLD.

Well, it had to happen. The ED127 has to move over. I'm simplifying my whole setup and shedding more of my scopes.

This is a splendid 127 F/7.5 to which I have attached a Moonlite 2" CF focuser with their HiRes stepper motor and MiniController. It's a strong and very accurate focuser that is easily and reliably controlled in ASCOM under MaximDL and similar programs.

I'll post up some images in the morning but I'm guessing you all know the ED127 as a good quality APO the only drawback of which is the miserable focuser supplied with the original scope - hence the Moonlite which makes this a very good imaging scope. It's undamaged - might be a smudge here and there on the OTA I suppose but it's always been in the obs and not moved around at all.

The scope comes in a sturdy original Aluminium case, with a 2"/1.25"adapter and good rings but I'd like to hang onto my Lomandy bar so would prefer top sell it without that.

I'm offering it at A$1800 plus whatever shipping may be involved. I have an Explore Scientific right-angle finder with illuminated reticle I'll throw in as well if wanted (for an additional A$120).
