Description

Welcome!

For all of the owners of Meade DS-series Autostar-powered telescopes!

This is the group that has been approved by the original Meade-DS group owner, Christopher Erickson and by the original group moderator, Don Wyman.

The original Meade-DS group was killed through the actions of a hacker/troublemaker.

No spams, flames politics or religion wanted here. Solicitations to join other groups need to be pre-approved by the group moderators.

Please feel welcome and let's talk Meade DS-Series telescopes!

NOTICE TO SPAMMERS - NEW MEMBERS ARE MODERATED AT FIRST SO DON'T BOTHER SPAMMING HERE!
