Finally TSA-102 is here :D

[sadia]

I missed the first delivery on Friday so had to hold my breath and wait for Monday and it got delivered around 3 PM

This is going to be my first triplet.

I hope there will be some decent weather soon to put me out of my misery

Alex what are you getting ???

[RB (Andrew)]

Wonderful !

Congats Sadia, you'll love it.

The Taks certainly come well packaged don't they.
The case looks schmick too.

[citivolus (Ric)]

Nice. You lucky dog. There's nothing like a well made refractor, a description which I believe fits that scope well.

[dpastern (Dave Pastern)]

Congrats, that's a rather nice bit of kit. Making me jealous here!

Nnnnnniiiiiiiiiiiiccccccccceeeeeeee ....!!!!!!!!

It looks like one of those telescopes that nobody actually looks through, but tell me. Is that an extender? And if so, would you be able to reach focus with a pair of binoviewers without having to use an OCS?

Congrats. Look forward to your first reported outing.

Brian.

V. Nice.
Too bad you had to wait all weekend. So frustrating... happened to me recently too.

sadia,

Congratulations on the new addition to your family.

May I ask, how long did it take from ordering to delivery?

I'm getting itchy.

Humayun

Congrats on the new scope. I have a TSA too. Nice scope and great for wide field imaging.

Hi Humayun, Payment cleared on Tuesday last week and and if i didnt miss the first delivery i would get it on Friday last week; so about 3/4 days wait. (Item was already in stock)

Yep the black one is a extension tube. I have very little knowledge on this scope so my comment might be wrong but there is an option for Twin viewer (45 deg bino viewer) in the diagrams provided with the manual.

Congratulations Sadia, I wish you clear skies and a great first light.

I love this scope and I only use mine for visual. Expensive yes, regrets no.

I haven't used a binoviewer.

What will use for a mount?
