Nexstar 11 inch GPS Schmidt-Cassegrain telescope by Celestron manufactured about 2002. I am the third owner, and recently purchased it a few months ago from a fellow astromart member.  This is an amazing telescope, and is in great shape with clean, bright optics.  To be honest, the only reason why I am selling it is because it is too BIG.  I am downsizing to an 6/8 for more portability. Telescope, fork mount, and motor-driven base are an integral unit that weighs 65 pounds.

INCLUDED:

  • 11 inch Schmidt-Cassegrain, f/10 optical system, Fastar (or Hyperstar) capable
  • Sturdy alt-az mount with good tracking for visual observing.
  • Hand control V4.18, Motor control V5.13
  • Everything in working order, including GPS
  • Starbright coatings
  • Steel tube (fast cool down)
  • 50mm finder
  • Feathertouch focuser
  • Counterweight rail and adjustable counterweight
  • 1.25 inch Visual back, 1.25 inch diagonal, and 1.25 inch 40mm Plössl eyepiece
  • Celestron AC adapter (new)
  • Serial port cable
  • Another cable for programming the hand controller
  • Three threaded counterweights of differing sizes that attach to the top front of the optical tube to balance accessories at the rear.
  • Bob's knobs for easy collimation of the secondary mirror.

ADDITIONAL ITEMS INCLUDED:

  • Baader 1.25" & 2" 8-24mm Hyperion Universal Mark IV Zoom Eyepiece # HYP-Zoom 2454826 (just purchased / used once)
  • Orion 08711 Shorty 1.25-Inch 2x Barlow Lens (Black – Brand New in box)
  • SkyFi 3 – Professional Astronomy Telescope Control (Brand New in box)
  • Celestron Heavy Duty Tripod for CPC 1100 Telescope 93493 (purchased this new when I got the telescope as it did not have a tripod)
  • JMI Shipping Case ($775 value) is heavy duty fiberglass with 8-inch pneumatic wheels for easy transport across grass surfaces. The finder, which has a quick release mount, fits inside a black cloth pouch which stores nicely inside the shipping case. The hand control also has its own black cloth pouch
At this time, I am looking for LOCAL PICKUP ONLY.  Thanks!
