Meade LX3 8" quartz

Posted By David Grasso
I believe I may have a copy of the schematics, I will search tonight. I sent Meade an LX3 drive which they repaired about a year and and half ago, they charged $200 then. I sold my LX3 drive, and now use the LX5 and LX6 drives, which I find to be much better. I wonder if Meade is no longer repairing any of the older drive systems?

Tonight I was observing Comet 17P Holmes in a 12.5" f/5 at 106x. It looks like there are two nuclei (sp?). I see the larger dark coma with a tight bright coma and two definite light spots. I was wondering if anyone else is seeing this? Alsio could this be a background star?
