Hi,
This is the second part of the sale of a deceased estate. This is a Losmandy G11 + Celestron 11-inch with a few extras. It's old and has been well used, but is still in full working order. I had it out last night to check it all out, and once properly collimated the telescope gave excellent views and the mount worked perfectly.
The system was used for both visual and imaging, but I don't have any examples to offer.
What is included is:
Losmandy (branded Celestron) G11 on heavy-duty pier-type tripod, complete with levelling pads
3 x 5Kg counterweights
Polar scope with illuminator
Argo Navis with encoders fitted to mount
AC power supplies
3 packing cases which fit everything except the counterweights
A G-11 has a nominally load capacity of 27Kg. It easily handles the C11.
G11 Still available. Open to offers.
C11 SOLD.
Celestron 11-inch with Starbright coatings - optics are clean
(I think these are Bob's Knobs fitted for easy collimation)
Full-length Losmandy dovetail
Celestron 1.25-inch visual back, Celestron T-thread camera adaptor
Revelation Astro 2-inch visual back (brass compression lock)
Full aperture solar filter
Telrad (well, there's the base fitted to the OTA and I've seen the Telrad, but I can't actually lay my hands on it at the moment!)
Lumicon giant 80mm finder with PulseGuide illuminator
Robofocus motor replacing manual focus, complete with controller and separate handset (old focus knob included)
Roger W Tuthill (that shows the age!) heated dew shield
I'd prefer to sell it as a complete unit but open to offers for the right price. $4500 + shipping. This comprises a fair weight (and volume) so pickup preferred, but shipping is an option. I travel to Newcastle and Sydney occasionally and so could bring it down if that helps.
Enquiries and offers via PM please.
Steve
