After setting up my scope where I planned to build my observatory, I found that I was limited in what areas of the sky I could shoot. While walking around my...
Guys, There's a used G11 w/Gemini for sale near my daughter's place in San Diego. Has a dovetail saddle plate, one 21 pound weight, no polar scope, tripod, and...
A new one goes for $3295 from Anacortes. I don't think that includes a saddle plate and doesn't include a case. Do you know how old the used one is? I don't...
Chuck, That's a good price, but not a great price. The polar scope is about $150.00 and often comes with the mount in this price range. I consider the polar...
Chuck, I think you have it pegged. A good price but not a steal or a great deal. You also can consider that you will not be paying shipping costs but will ...
That looks really nice Steve. It will be interesting to see what happens with a 3 or 5 minute frame. You may have saved yourself a bunch of money. Kiry _____...
I'm a big believer in simple solutions and it sounds like you've found one. If it's quick and gives you access to more sky area then it's a pretty easy choice...
Hello All! I just met with Jim Murphy (Dept. Head) and Tom Harrison (astro dept faculty) regarding their 16" LX200. They see no problem in putting the scope...
Thanks for the feedback everyone. I think I will pass on this one; I am not quite ready to spend another $3k right now... Chuck ... deal. ... will ... ...

Hi Rich, To keep the cost down it seems to me that replacing the motors should at least be looked into. Find out how much would Meade charge or if it is...
Tony, I have keys to the club scope and can provide access to you. I work on campus if you need access during the day, or can meet you there when you're ...
Tom Harrison said that Meade wasn't very reassuring regarding whether they had replacement motors for the scope. But it's obviously an option to be explored. ...
Tony, Sorry for the delay but I was up in Washington and BC on vacation and just got back last night. Man, I don't know how you NW Pacificers can move away ...
Looks like an orbital shot! Glad to have you with us, Tony. Dave ... From: ASLC_Imagers@yahoogroups.com [mailto:ASLC_Imagers@yahoogroups.com]On Behalf Of Tony...
Great news! Thanks for getting this done, Rich. I agree with Tony. Let's look into getting it repairing it before we go shopping for a new mount. Is it...
Another doozy, Kirbini. Keep them coming, Dave ... From: ASLC_Imagers@yahoogroups.com [mailto:ASLC_Imagers@yahoogroups.com]On Behalf Of Kirby Benson Sent:...
Steve, Ok, that sounds good. Daytime would be best so I can get a good look at things. Anytime on Thursday or Friday would be fine. Just give me a time and...
Dave, Wow, back already....... You know, that's what the Northwest does, did the same thing to me. You go up there on vacation a few times and it's beautiful,...
Very nice, Jerry! Your processing skills are getting better with each shot. Sorry to hear about the accident. Did it happen at the astronomy event? Glad to...

I must admit to being perplexed. Ever since I joined this club, there's been talk about the club having an observatory. We have a sizeable amount of money...
Rich, The thing has an 11" RA worm gear so if it is possible to fix the problem with the drives it should be capable of a decent level of tracking accuracy....
I have been monitoring this thread but I must have missed something. I must have missed where we balked. I think it is a great opportunity for the club and see...
Dear ASLC, Like Jerry I must have missed something in the communications regarding objections or concerns about this telescope. I will also say that as a ...
