I was wondering if you can 1.25 eyepiece on my meade 4501 after I get the adapter, or does it have to be a meade? I would think they all would work but can't...

Although I now have a 5" DS 2130 ATE I still love this group (way more interesting than the one for DS scopes!). I phoned Meade for the adaptor from 0.96" to...

Hi Jarris, I think others have already answered your questions about eyepiece adapters, though I'd like to add that if you can't get one from Meade or Harry...
I mostly used my 20mm and 10mm Plossls, the 26 and 40 were also useful looking for DSO with my scope. The seeing is seldom good enough for anything smaller...

Hi Jarris. May I recommend that you buy filters as well as higher- power eyepieces? I used a Siebert lens and 1.5 x Barlow to get 195x magnification on my...
