HI, I'm going to have custom wide adaptors made up so it was really just the distance from 1.25inch filter to chip that i was concerned with. So it looks like...

... You just need some shorter bolts. They are either M6 or M8. Your local Ace Hardware will have them, though probably not in stainless steel. You'll...
I had the same problem with my Band Adapter and have used both of Gene's solutions. I needed two washers under each of the original bolts but now use smaller...
HI- I've never visited this group before, but as the new owner of an FSQ106 I will likely be around. Question: I just received and installed the micro-focus...
Colleagues, I am trying to get The Sky 6 to work with my Tak EM-200 TemmaII mount but it keeps slewing of in completely wrong directions...I have checked the...

Hi Mark, I had a similar problem. I was using the Sky 5, the Ascom platform, a Sbig 7parrellel, Robofocus, and a Laptop with an NJP running Temma PC. The mount...
Hi Mark, Most often, slews in the wrong direction are caused by a bad initial sync process. Also, make sure your site long/lat, and computer time are correct....
Hi, What is the autoguiding option of a Tak mount? What are the options? Can I use, for instance, the K3 software and a webcam? Thanks, Andre [Non-text...
Hi, How Losmandy mounts are compared to Tak mounts regarding tracking accuracy for astrophotograph y? Which one will track better ? EM10 or G11 ? Thanks, Andre...
I have owned both (still have my G-11). In my experience, my G-11 tracks a bit better, as well as being somewhat easier to use. My EM-10 was a 1995 version,...
Hi Tom, Thanks for your reply. I am looking for a mount for astrophotography. But I havent decided between Tak and Losmandy. I have read that G11 mount had...
The older Losmandy mounts were not as accurate nor as smooth. The newer gear combos are better buy you still have to deal with PEC. The EM-10 is an extremely...
Hi, The gear combos are sold with the mount or I do have to buy it ? How do I know an used g11 mount has good tracking or not ? Another problem is that I live...
Is this the Takahashi Band Adaptor, or the one I make? I believe Texas Nautical sells both. http://www.robincasady.com/Astro/DoveNJP.html (scroll down to the ...
This was yours. It came from TNR and had your label on the pkg. I put a washer under each bolt as Gene suggested which took care of the clearance issue. The...
Hi AM: With Losmandy it all depends on what comes out of the box when you get it. Takahashi has a real good quality control program. It has been probably ten ...
Hi Andre, I have a 5 year old mount with the upgraded worm that Scott sent. My understanding is that the new mounts all have the upgrade. A friend of mine just...
Tough call, but not really a fair comparison as they are in different classes. With lightweight scopes, I would think the EM10 would track better. I was an...
Several months back I purchased a CAA for my FS 128F which has the same reducer, flattner and 4" focuser as the FS 152. I've only used it so for for visual...
Hi, I'm new here, found this by googling for an English language manual for the FS-60C. Is there one? Where/how do I get a copy? Thanks! Steve Ramey...
