eyepiece clean/repair question

Posted By david blumberg

I have a Meade 6.7mm UWA that has a tiny but very noticeable black smudge near the center of the FOV. It doesn't seem to be on the surface of any of the accessible lenses. I therefore assume it is on one of the internal surfaces. VERY noticeable when viewing Jupiter, for instance.

Is there someplace or someone (Meade, for example) that I can send it to for dismantling and cleaning. Any idea of the cost involved? IS this something I should try myself?

thanks,

david
