Well I dont want to sound like a basher but.... scope (1) 14" rcx----broke sent back scope (2) replacment 14" rcx broke traded to 12" rcx scope (3) 12" rcx...
Every new model of scope has a few glitches that need fixing during its production run. But even a long running model, like the LX200 classic that I got (last...

Hey guys, I have the lxd75 sn8. My first night out. I polar aligned the scope. No problem. Got polaris right on the circle! Set the latitude! Aligned the...
Hi Steve, Go back to the arrows. You turn horizintal for the hole opening to view the Pole Star. You are also not going to be dead center of the circle. You...
I agree with your statements on how Meade adjusts the tube alignment. But "results may vary". On the one I got, in Polar alignment mode, I couldn't even...
Hi Steve, Yep, it's pretty cold out there lately! As low as minus 7 expected here in Essex, UK tonight. Polar aligning from scratch could take a little time in...

Will the pressure in the OTA increase when you are doing the second method? If yes, will it hurt the alignment of the mechanisms inside? What will happen if...
No. It won't hurt anything. There are no mechanisms inside an SCT that could be easily damaged by anything short of a good swift kick. ;-) Do you want to know...
I've tried prying... but have reached the point where I'm afraid I'm going to break the corrector - still no budge at all. I might try a qtip with a lttle...
... No more (hurt the alignment) than would be the case if the corrector came off easily. In either case, after reinstalling the corrector, a collimation would...

Thanks Rod, Glad you brought this up. I have always had concerns that Meade focused to much outside the telescope market, 50%, but if this helps to make them...
