Hello all, I've had my ETX-125 for 3 to 4 years now. I finally got a digital SLR and purchased the Meade hardware to mount it on the back of the scope. While...
I'd call them again. Meade's customer service is notoriously "clunky" (first good decriptive word that sounded accurate), but if you keep at them they usually...
