Complete kit Takahashi Scopes and Mount and CCD

Hi Guys - as mooted, I am selling my kit. The whole lot. Here is what I have for sale. I am interested in selling the lot as a package. If someone is interested that's great if not, I will sell the items individually.

I have had a number of inquiries about individual items especially the scopes and mount so if I do sell them apart, to be fair, the items will go to the highest bidder. The STL in the pictures has been sold.

TAK FSQ-106 (with 2" diagonal and TAK carry case)
TAK FS-60c guide scope (TAK carry case)
TAK EM 200 Temma Jr mount +24v power supply
TAK Tripod
SBIG STV with built in monitor
Computer in travel case with 15" flat screen
Remote computer control system (for controlling scope inside house in winter)
The Sky6 Pro software
TPoint Software
Robofocus for both scopes
Temp control system for tube (no need to refocus during the night)
William Optics Saddle plate mounting rings for FSQ and FS-60c.

The first three items alone are over $14,000 new. I am happy to sell it all for $12,000.

I guess it is the original Flourite, it is no.18 in the series so it must be. When did they change? I hate to be parting with it but that's life.

The FS60-C is fluorite as well ("uo", not "ou" ) Test by passing a green laser through it - the beam disappears as it passes through the front and rear interfaces of the crown and reappears as it strikes the rear element.

Hi Hans - It has a split tube but the dew shield does not retract. I thought that was a feature limited to the N model only. Thanks for the information.
