Dew band positioning?

[Rols]

I have the 12" lx200 I have made a dew band (resistor method) I would like to know where is best to position it? I was thinking directly behind the corrector, but I'm not sure if I should leave an inch or less maybe. Advice from someone in the know would be appreciated please.

Behind the corrector I find works best.

I take it from that you mean as close behind the corrector as possible, no gap required?

On my CPC, there is the cell that hold the corrector plate which is raised a little from the rest of the tube, I place it just behind there. You should be able to make out the position of the dew band from the first two pics in this post when I first acquired my scope.

Thanks Brinders.

Thats exactly where i was going to pop it, i just wanted to make sure it was going to do the trick from their before i taped it into place, i was a little unsure if being that close to the corrector would maybe cause issues.

Thanks for the pics most helpfull.
