This is the place to discuss EVERYTHING MEADE! Every Meade telescope and accessory is open to freewheelin', uncensored discussion and comment! Got an ETX? This is your place. StarFinder fan? Come on in! Curious about Meade eyepieces? Ask away! Longing for an LX200 GPS? We know all about 'em! This list is not endorsed by nor sponsored by Meade Instruments Corporation.
