Focal reducer to use with lx200r telescope

[h0ughy (David)]

Looking for a focal reducer to use on my 12inch lx200R ota?

[Outcast (Carlton)]

There is a Meade Series 4000 f6.3 focal reducer for sale in the classifieds..

Would that not suit?

Not even close, it's for the older Meade's not the R or the acf

Ah... for some reason I thought the R was an older model...

Meade LX200R = Meade LX200 ACF

They seem to be selling the standard reducer for use on the ACF models???

But Meade Oz say otherwise!
