AP130EDT vs155EDFS

Posted By Mike Clemens

I bet the smaller aperture and and slower speed of the 130mm f/8.3 yields a noticable improvement in color correction. Stopping the 155 f/7 down to 130mm would
probably do the same thing.

focuser repair help wanted

Posted By Mike Clemens

You dont need 10" of travel if you get a focuser that accepts extensions.

(For example, the AP 2.7" focuser or TMB focusers.) They both have about 4" travel, but you can screw optional full-focuser-aperture extensions in that extend the range of travel.
