    Pier, base and legs all painted. I need 10lbs of back weight to blance the top heavy SW150ED.
  2. CHASLX200
    Gotta repaint the legs and pier on the AP 800.
  3. CHASLX200
    Well if it is one of the corner stars on the box i will find it.

    Balance is fixed. Now thew scope sits way up in the saddle after i added a heavy Vixen weight to the saddle. Now i can reach my SLO- MO controls.

    Don't know that one or where it is.

    I am 28 miles northwest of Tampa right on the gulf. I have no porblem using 100x per inch in my best APO's on the moon and doubles. Jupiter is too dim at 100x per inch. I can also use my Newts on the AP800. Once i get my short pier fixed i am good to go. Here is the 8" F/6 on the tall pier.

    Had the scope to 800x on the moon and it still looked pretty good, but dim. I have some of the best seeing in my country and i have used over 1100x in my bigger Newts.

    I have a Moonlite on the 120ed. I put the stock SW focuser on the CR6 6" Celestron and it binds some,, but fine focus is fine. I don't use 2" eyepieces. The stock focser on the SW150 ED seems fine.
  9. CHASLX200
    Here is the CR6 on top and a SW120EDPro on the bottom.

    Needs lot of back weight. Here it is on the AP800.
  11. CHASLX200
    Scope seems to be very good.

    I tried that before and just did another new thread and no action so that is why.
  13. CHASLX200
    Well the thread has been dead jed so i spiced it up some to get some action back to this thread.

    I picked up a CR6 Ahro a while back. For under $300 is the best bang for the buck. I gave up on the SW150ED.
  15. CHASLX200
    I paid $2400 used for the APM shipping included. It was like 6 weeks old. Had it up to 1000x on the moon and i be darned the image was not bad. Very dim but still looked ok. The CR6 was local so i had to try it out. It did fine with a 3mm Delite this am on the moon. But as we all know there is color on many objects. But for 300 smackers it is not bad.
  16. CHASLX200
    I gave up waiting and got a APM and just got a CR6 this weekend. Not bad for $300.
  17. CHASLX200
    We will see how the 6" ed does soon.
  18. CHASLX200
    He wants to buy a 16" Zambuto. He is also selling a once used 4" Tak. Soon as i get the scope i am taking it to 400x+ on Mars.
  19. CHASLX200
    Just bought a APM 6" f/8 that was 6 weeks old.
  20. CHASLX200
    I was just offered a SW150ED so maybe they are coming back on line. I passed. Maybe in a few months when the planets are back.
  21. CHASLX200
    Nice scope. I guess i am not planning to see the SW150ed for a long while the way it looks.
  22. CHASLX200
    Nice scopes. So i guess late OCT is out now for the SW150ED? It could be months the way things are going.
  23. CHASLX200
    No news over here yet. AT least i got this to play with.
  24. CHASLX200
    I got a 5" f/12 D&G to hold me over.
  25. CHASLX200
    Well it is Oct so something should go down soon.
