Telrad Finders, out of stock?

[brianw1]

Hey guys,

I'm wondering if anybody has bought a telrad finder online recently. Have been searching for about an hour now and found they are out of stock on FLO aswel as Altair Astro. There is one on ebay, but at a much higher price tag (almost double including the p+p )

Dying to get rid of the scope that came with my dob, drove me to insanity last night it did!!

Thanks in advance,

Brian.

Try http://www.sherwoods-photo.com/meade_scopes/observing_aids_fs.htm?

They have telrads a few scolls down on that page, it'll be worth asking if they have any in.

I imagine they're just a little more pricey than FLO but you could try here: http://www.astroshop.eu/?q=telrad

Mc2Scopes in Stroud had a delivery last week. More expensive than FLO but at least they had some in. I asked FLO but they said they still did not have an ETA for them.

Would a Rigel Quickfinder not do you just as well?

I believe they have one less circle in the reticle, but they are smaller and lighter than a Telrad.

there's a Telrad on preloved at the moment;

Never heard of them, off to investigate!

I recently got a Rigel and am very pleased with it! Easy, accurate & reliable! The telrad just looked a little too big to me.

Could give Harrison Telescopes a ring too as they sell them here.

i got an email off martin at flo today and he said they're hoping for a delivery in the next 10 days. i ordered mine anyway.

You might want to get a extra base, have one either side of the focus tube so you don't need to get under the scope any time if you only have the one, aligning isn't to hard do one then then place the second base so its aligned the same as the first, then press the sticky pads to secure......
