Meade 12" LX200 dead electronics..SOLD

[astroboy]

Hi
Thought I would see if there was any interest in a Meade 12" I have here doing nothing.
The electronics don't work at all , I assume this means it needs a new mother board which cost about $700 ( including new motors )
Comes with the giant field tripod , 8x50 finder , 12volt to 18volt converter , handcontroler , 2" meade diagonal and one of those springy things that screw into the shipping bolt hole to stop mirror flop.
The corrector has some scuff marks on the front from a poor cleaning effort ( don't look at me )
Have the shipping foam and and could pack it into my GPS box.
Asking $2500

Thanks
Zane

Hi Mick and Tony

You were right Mick it is the EMC scope here .
And Tony here is a pic of the the worst 2 scatches on corrector plate there are quite a few lighter ones but very difficult to photograph , sorry about the dust.

Do you still have the scope forsale

Sorry I sold the scope a while back and will probably regret it , it had the sharpest optics of any SCT I've seen ( not that I've seen that many ) but needed to make way for the 24" thats due in July.

Thanks
Zane
