... Good question and sorry for the confusion. If you leave the scope in its mono mode, with the scope's extension threaded in, then you must use the Denk...

Thank you David, Dennis and James very much. Thank you James for taking the time to take out your SV90T to try out for me. It is much appreciated. For now just...
... David, I'm so sorry to hear this. Even more important than the potential loss of the scope, though, I hope you are okay and that whatever health issues...

I've been working my way up the learning curve of CCD imaging and, last night, finally got a result I'm pleased with. This is hard! Makes me admire even more...
Tony, Just to make sure I didn't steer you wrong, I just went out and tried my 90TBV in "mono" mode with my Denkmeier Power Switch. I use Russ's OCS (or...
Hey David, ... So how did it feel? How much does it weigh? Did you get a chance to look through it? I've already talked to my wife about getting one, and I...
Oh, ok. No, I'm using the 2" diagonal and was hoping to use 1 1.25" filter with various EPs. Alright, I guess I'll just have to get that OIII filter in 2" so...
Scott and I made it to MASP last night, in Robbins NC, with Scott bringing his new 102ABV and I brought my NHII. We had two 10" Dobs set up behind us, a...
Hi Tony Perhaps you might want to give the guy at Earthwin a chance. He makes a very nice product and it appears to be a little cheaper. His name is Bill...
Tony, I'd give Russ at Denkmeier a call. As far as packages, he can sell you whatever you want, in any combination you want. I have the same situation with my...

Gary, I was missing something. I was thinking you were using the 1.25" adapter in the focuser with a 1.25 diagonal. Do'h! David E ... From: "Gary Hatfield"...
Hello everyone, I have a SV90TBV and would like to add a Denk II to it in the future. Does anyone have this setup who can help me by answering a few of my ...
David, ... I can put the 1.25" filter where? The 1.25" adapter and the end of the 2" diagonal that goes into the focuser are both threaded for 2" filters....
I don't want to but I fear my SV80S may have to be sold to cover medical expenses. The one scope I repeatedly said I would never sell may have to go. Before I...
Frank, Have you seen a recent JMI encoder installation on a Unistar? I know you've seen mine, which I'm very happy with, but it was one of their early efforts...
Hi Guys back again took this last night wanted to try my Canon 40D @ iao 3200 and I am very happy with its performance this image was 40 x 150 secs 20 flats 10...
Scott, Well, it sounds like you had a very nice intro the ABV. Â As winter progresses, perhaps you'll get a good dark (and still) sky some night. Â Then you'll...
Gary, you would not need to have the adapter threaded for 1.25" filters, as the diagonal you are using is already threaded and you can put the 1.25" filter...
Hi Gary, You are correct. It requires the more expensive 2" filters, but then you always have the option of screwing the 2" filters into a 2" eyepiece or the...
Hi, I was under the impression the 1.25" adapter for the 2" diagonal was threaded for 1.25" filters so you could change EPs w/o having to change the filter...
Awesome Mary! With an FL-D or blue/violet filter, on occasion during near half-phases of Venus, subtle markings may become visible. Keep observing and give it...
