Hey James, So you decided on the CP4500? That's great, maybe we can figure it out together. I am really impressed with the detail you got on M57. I saw it...
Dear friends, How long it takes for an ETX 125 EC and a Super Plössl Eyepiece set from Meade 30th anniversary promotion to be delivered in USA? Thanks, Paulo...
It depends on where you order it from. I got my telescope in person from my local dealer, but it took about a month or so to get the lens set (I called Meade...
Brent, I think mag 13 will be easy so that means all the M objects. I think the tough part should be anything over 30 seconds. But we will see soon enough. ...
I don't know how long the eyepiece offer is taking in the USA but it is about 3 months in the UK. I bought my 90 in early February and sent off for the offer...
James, I just got the camera yesterday, waiting on the WO 24mm EP adapter. I think my biggest problem, down here in sunny FL, will be the heat. I was out...
I recently sent an ETX105EC mount (w/o OTA) for checks and unfortunately, it has gotten delayed in the mail some where in the US on the way back to me ...:-( ...

I have had a 90 W/UHTC and now have a 125 W/UHTC. There is a big difference in power. What I like the most is you can use more power on the ep side (ie: a 14mm...
I was out last night when I noticed I couldn't get a sharp focus on any object. It was due to dew accumulation on the lens. Any suggestions on material for a...
A dew shield will certainly protect the outer lens surface from dew for quite a while but don't forget the eyepieces and finder scope. I find the dew problem...

At a club observing party last night, one of our members had a strange problem with her LX-90. She had no trouble with set up and alignment and managed several...
If you are referring to the electric focuser the yes. They are great. On the off chance you are referring to the B/W camera "electronic eyepiece" the one I saw...
Hello Peter I'm a bit cheesed off with that fiddly focuser nob on the ETX- 125...so you think the Meade Electronic Focuser is worth going for ?!...? Paul UK ...
Paul, I had the opportunity to use a 125 with the 1247(not positive about model #) electric (not electronic) focuser and immediately put a 1244 focuser for my...
When I got my ETX-125, the dealer (Oceanside Photo and Telescope) strongly recommended one of those 'focus extenders' (you know, the flexible cable about a...
Hope she finds out the issue. If the HC is still under some kind of warranty Meade would probably make her ship the whole scope back to repair the HC. Ha...
... Preachin' to the choir, pal. I had to send my entire 10" LX-200 back for a board switch several years ago. Cost me a ton in shipping and another $200 for...
