Orion now has a 102ED refractor announced with retracting dew shield and a two speed rotating Cfrayford focuser. It looks very similar to the Astronomy...
Looke very nice. It's also in the catalog I received today. Which AT unit is comparable? I was just at their site and they only listed the 66 and 80mm models I...

Mike; The market seems to disagree with you as today the majority of ED and APO refractors seem to be in the F6 to F7.5 range. The Orion/Synta 100mm ED at F9...
I am curious if anyone has purchased the new 6" scope from Orion that is optimized for imaging. Since I have a relatively light mount (SkyView Pro), it looks...
Per the web site it looks like not yet shipping as it is shown on backorder with expected availability 1 Nov. Unless they sold out on an earlier batch I doubt...

I'm not sure if the Skyview Deluxe controller is identical to my Skyview Pro one, but I have recently been experiencing the same symptoms. It seems to be only...
I have thought of that but haven't yet tried it. I am also wondering if the cables to the motors may be at fault. I'll do some checking and let you know what I...
I just got into my controller to check it out. On mine, there are four screws in the top of the controller and one on the power jack that need to be removed....
I have used Orion Classic Dob. The focuser doesn't work as well as I'd like, so I did a search on-line and found a terrific site that explained how to take it...
Folks, I am a relatively new observer, using an ST-120, which seems to suit my needs well (at least for now). I'm thinking of buying the Mars Observation Set...
