Meade 8" LS-ACF

[spaak2000]

I just purchased the Meade 8" LS-ACF. Everything is working great. I live in a pretty light polluted area. I was trying to figure out what filters to get, and how they fit on the telescope. Also, i have a laptop with stellarium that i want to plug into the telescope, but not sure what interface to use..... Any help would be MUCH appreciated

Where did you purchase the scope? I'm interested in this model as well.

Telescope House do all the Meade stuff, as for the plugging in a Laptop i'm not to sure, but people in TH will know for sure....

filters generally screw into the eyepieces, 1.25" being typical. The skywatcher LP filter is good and cheap or you can go for a stronger UHC filter or similar. Don't know about the ACF to PC interface, but TH should know.
