Buy and Sell
Hi all.
Selling my old computerised telescope.
Looking for £1200 and a quick sale. Open to offers! :)
Heres the details:
Excellent condition large 9.25 inch Schmitt Cassigrain (glass and mirror) telescope scope for planetary or deep sky objects - a light bucket, but better contrast than a Dobsonian - sorry, you missed the sale of my much loved 10 inch collapsable Dobsonian toTring Astronomy Centre.
Would recommend bets for an Intermediate to Advanced level astronomer but easy to operate.
A monster, a bit heavy - ask mate to help you guide it in to position (but can do by yourself), however would easily sit on a pier in a garden observatory or local Astronomy club observatory. We had a similar model at the Wycombe Astronomy Observatory only few years back.
Fully working, apart from the GPS but you can just type your co-ordinates.
I think the battery just needs replacing in the head unit and its soldered on.
Handset working and just buy yourself a battery power pack and connect it to operate.
Can also be attached to a PC or Mac to be driven by them.I will throw in the cables.
Will miss it - just replaced with the other 2 telescope in my most recent photo.
Also, includes study original tripod. So ideal for Astro Photography.
The mount is too
The middle telescope so you can see it size.
heavy I recommend buying a Celeston VX mount from Tring Astronomy, www.tringastronomy.
If you are going to take photos of large objects you need a photo reducer.
Cheers
Mark
