Gso 8" rc - Price reduced

Hi All,

After a year of imaging with the GSO RC, aperture fever has bitten again.

That and a resurgent $A means another scope (RC10C) is on its way over from the US.

Which means that I'd like to sell the GSO RC.

It's an 8" model, with CF tube, I have replaced the focuser with a Moonlite CS model with Robofocus. I'd like to keep the controller for the Robofocus, but that would be negotiable.

I'm looking at trying to get $1800 for this setup.

The primary mirror has some dust and associated crap on it, I have been imaging with it like this for a while, open tubes mean mirrors get dirty. I would not clean it yet. I have some flocking material on the way from the US to flock the baffle, I'll include enough to do that job. While it's apart you might as well clean the optics.

If time (and clear skies) permit, I'll do all this and then recollimate the scope with CCDInspector.

Pictures soon.

Cheers
Stuart

Price reduced to $1500.

Flocking for the baffle has arrived, not installed.

Cheers
Stuart
