Superb Takahashi TSA-102 Super Apochromat, D102mm x F8 Triplet, SN-S13029
Superb Takahashi TSA-102 Super Apochromat, D102mm Triplet, SN-S13029. Price changed (mistakenly listed too low) $2750, pickup preferred.
Comes with manual but no certificate. Classic D102mm Triplet with F8 focal length of 816mm. Perfect for planets IMHO, and this example performs to all expectations. Used for last opposition of Mars to great effect.
Has had only moderate use (previous owner used very little as purchased in error), and I have graduated to a larger scope. One or two tiny marks on the body, I have never touched the objective for cleaning or otherwise (best left alone). In great shape.
Includes standard factory focuser which does leave something to be desired, plus genuine D50 finder bracket with 3rd party finder. I am including a 38mm long spacer which I found necessary for use with long focal length eyepieces.
