Due to the purchase of a new scope, I need to recover some funds and therefore wish to sell my Celestron C9.25 SCT / Losmandy GM8 / NGC Max DSC and associated bits. I estimate the age of the OTC/GEM/DSC to be around 8 years as I bought it second hand in 2003 and was told that it was three years old then.
The package is available as a job lot for $2950 (negotiable).
If the purchaser is interested in the homemade observatory and want to go to the trouble of re-locating it then this will be offered at no extra cost.
The package for sale includes:
- Celestron C9.25 SCT OTA (F/10)
- Losmandy GM8 equatorial mount
- NGC Max Digital Setting Circles (4800 step encoders)
- 10mm plossl eyepiece
- Losmandy metal tripod
- 1 metre high mounting pier for GM8
- Orion dew zapper
- Dew shield
- Two spare Losmandy dovetail plates (1 x 14" + 1 x 7")
- 50mm illuminated reticule finderscope
- Telrad
- F6.3 focal reducer
- Orion mirror star diagonal
- Celestron #94176 radial guider
- 30AH car battery
OTA has some minor scratches on the painted surface of the tube. Optically it is excellent.
