Anyone ever take out the control module that mounts the ON/OFF switch and associated pc board? It's a plastic part and I can't understand what holds it in the...
Hello all...it's been a while since I posted. I am working on something for ETX scopes and I would like some opinions from ETX users. I currently own an ETX...
... (this is going to sound silly, but it's real) I want my ETX90 case to carry -clothing-. I sometimes take my ETX90 as hand-carry on trips. I prefer to...
Hi - I would like to see an ETX case on wheels that includes a way of packing the tripod. What I would like is a single package for everything: tripod,...
