Thanks for the posts Ron. Would you mind posting a photo of how the STL-10000 is attached to the focuser? The "metal back" distance in my Epsilon 160 is...
That's correct; collimation is just a hair off. I don't have the collimation tools, but the mirrors do have marks. Ron Wodaski http://www.newastro.com ... ...
I'll take a picture when I get a chance, but getting the right distance is trivially simple. The E180 has a double lens for correction in the focuser tube, and...

Hi everybody, I'm very grateful for all the answers I read on the forum. I think that I should explain my doubts better. I consider Losmandy G11 with Gemini a...

I'm looking for a system chart for my FCT-76 in order to figure out a problem getting my 1.25 visual back to focus correctly. I have a late model rack and...
I'll see what I can dig up as I've got the same model. But keep in mind that while visual use is at least a secondary consideration with many of Tak's scopes...

For purely visual work, would the EM200 (or maybe G-11) adequately carry the TOA-150? I'd love to own a TOA-150, but I'm sure I'd dislike hauling around an...
