HEQ5 GoTo- Early March

Go-to mount with SynScan controller.
Condition is "gently used" or 7/10, with only a few scuffs and a scratch or two that you really have to look at to worry about. I need it for at least a 10 days longer to do a couple of public viewings.
Bought from Bolts_Tweed earlier this year.
It tracks very well, goes where you tell it to, and, once initiated with two-star align, will put an object bang in the middle of a 15mm Plossl.
Have not tried it with any autoguiders, but it doesn't seem to need one.
Fixed a small power connect problem last week and tightend up a nut here and there and its going great.
Selling as my few outings with a DSLR convince me I haven't the patience for AP and my old back can't take sustained observing sessions so a new toy is in the offing!

Guide price: $1000 - includes shipping up to $100 or p/u for $900
