Chuck, Wow, Those are some good prices, and it seems like a good fix too. The conversion hybrid sounds like the perfect answer! How about recommendations about...
John, Thank you for your help. Looks like the LX3 is it. The photo matches our scope perfectly. I have joined the Yahoo Group that you suggested and...
Rod, Thank you for your reply and link to your guide. Looks like LX3 is it. Now to get a 12 V power supply for it. However, since the power is only for...

Note that there is a discrepancy in the elements of the position of new asteroid 2009 DD45 in the current MPC updates ftp://cfa-ftp.harvard.edu/pub/MPCORB/ ...
Another consideration... Anytime you are screwing metal self tapping screws or already threaded screws into the accessory holes in the OTA... there is a very...
Ooops, sorry, brain was not in gear when fingers did the typing. I have a 12 volt car lighter adapter that I got with my ETX 125. I also have the eight...
That should work. I don't think the LX3 had slewing speed- just tracking and a 2X "drive corrector" for guiding, so it shouldn't need much battery power. ...
John, OK, thanks. I am in a dialogue with the LX group and I am waiting for confirmation that the post must be center postive. I'll be back to the club on...
Hi folks Computer controlled telescopes....I am facing several months flat on my back My query is that I have a EXT80 and I have been told that I can...
To some extent. You'll probably want at least a Stellacam or Mallincam to do this if you fancy lookin' at much beyond the Moon and bright planets. And...gotta...

Joe, Thank you for your reply. We have made a lot of progress since my original post. I was referred to the Meade-X5-X6 site which turned out to be an...
... Joe mentioned the power draw- 12h life for a 6Ah battery pack- so it sounds like it will use more than I thought, so the D cells may not last very long....
Most star parties will have power available for rechargin' your batteries. Get a 17 - 20ah battery pack, though, (prob'ly a hair more than twenty bucks for a...

Our group has several batteries of different capacities, hence the desire for a car lighter power supply. We have the Celestron and Orion 17 and 7 AH as well...
Then all you need is the car cord. Like I said, Scopestuff has one. It's only 5 feet long, but since you could put the battery right under the scope, that's...
