Great scope, selling due to upgrade.



$350



Never had a problem with this scope holding collimation (I collimated it twice in 1 year that I used it). I'm the second owner (the first owner bought it about 3 years ago but kept it in storage while in hospital). Has been kept in a dust proof container with dehumidifier when not used. Comes with Bahtinov mask.

List of modifications:
*flocked inside of OTA
*painted back and sides of secondary with chalkboard paint
*New 2" adapter on drawtube with inner copper ring and two securing screws to reduce tilt
*baffle on back of mirror cell to block stray light
*Lacerta dual speed microfocuser upgrade
*Cut the focus tube so that it didn't protrude in the light path when used with a CC and 55mm backfocus.

If I was going to keep it about the only other thing I would do would be to make an aperture or mirror mask. Can post at buyers expense.


*Modified for atstrophotography, will need a 30mm extension piece for visual use.

Included image of the Lagoon nebula is a Sharpcap livestack image with no post-processing, taken with a 0.75 x reducer.

Hi Michael,
If the postage to Blackwater in Queensland (4717) isn't too stupid I'm quite interested.
If you haven't had any local interest please let me know how much extra postage is and we should be able to work something out.


Thanks,


Mike
