Pulsar Observatory 2.1 m measurements.

[SteveBz]

Hi Guys,

I've been offered one of the old pulsar 2.1m observatories. Does anyone have the other demensions of it. Eg height, slit width, door etc.

If you have diagrams that would be even more amazing.

Thanks very much.

Steve.

Mines a MkII and I haven't collected it yet, but the measurements I have been given the following: -

"The dome walls have a diameter of 2100mm +/- about 5mm. At the bottom of the walls, there's an approx. 80mm flange on the inside - so the internal diameter of the flange is 2100 -(2 x 80) = 1940mm +/- about 10mm. "

I hope this is correct as I have had the concrete and brick wall erected to take it.

Great. Thanks for that. Do you know its height?
