GordonCopestake Posted June 25, 2006 Share Posted June 25, 2006 Great optics on the 200GX and 8" is a good aperture. Should blow you away hehe. On the EQ6 it will be rock solid. Great choices! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Albireo380 Posted June 25, 2006 Share Posted June 25, 2006 Great Set up Ian - youv'e got it all covered - night and day. All you need now is a gizmo to banish clouds - and if you get one, can I have a loan sometimes?Enjoy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kaptain Klevtsov Posted June 25, 2006 Share Posted June 25, 2006 Marvelous stuff you have there, my only criticism would be that your Sig. needs updating. Another Coronado PST, seems like everybodys getting one.Captain Chaos Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

John Posted June 25, 2006 Share Posted June 25, 2006 Hi Ian,Nice setup !.Is that a Telescope House dielectric diagonal on your ED80 ? - if so how do you find it ? - I'm thinking of moving to one of these from my Tele Vue 1.25 inch Everbright on my ED80.Cheers,John,North Somerset.

chewy Posted June 26, 2006 Author Share Posted June 26, 2006 Hi JohnYea its one of thoselooks and feels really nice only just got it so not had chance to look through it yetIan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GordonCopestake Posted June 26, 2006 Share Posted June 26, 2006 I need to upgrade my 2" diagonal from the one that came with my skywatcher 100ED. Better than a tasco one, but pretty poor. Although it might benefit from a quick clean hehe. I dont tend to clean my optics until the point i say "hmmm thats an odd looking star, theres a dark patch over it! Have i found a new planet? Ahhh no i just need to do a bit of dusting :D" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
