10 “ Meade LX 200 R With Electronic Focuser On Millburn Wedge

I have recently purchased an AZ-EQ 6 and I am selling off my Meade to fund the purchase of a new F8 OTA.

All items in the photos with the exception of the guide camera , image camera and OAG are included. I will replace these with the standard Meade 1.25 inch diagonal.

Comments

1. The LX 200 R optics are the same as the current LX 200 ACF.
2. The Meade controller firmware has been patched for the polar mode southern hemisphere park defect. So if it is parked in polar mode it restarts correctly in polar mode with the saved alignment data.
3. The Millburn wedge has been modified to operate from latitudes 15 to 60 .
4. The trolley has level adjusting bolts.
6. The Astro Zap dew shield has an internal heater.
7. Underneath there is a Meade weight dovetail with three moveable weights for balancing purposes.
8. The Millburn wedge can be removed and it will operate in Alt-AZ mode for visual observing.
9. The electronic focuser works well.
10. I have attached a 10 minute test guide with the OAG and above cameras. The stars are round and there is no coma. So the mount tracks well and the optics are excellent.

Price

1. LX 200R and Wedge $3250.00
2. LX 200R only $2750.00
3. Wedge only $500.00
