LX200 12" weight

Posted By Don Stowe

I have a Meade 8" lx200 and I am thinking of upgrading to a 12" lx200. I usually only set it up in my backyard or just out of the back of my Tahoe. My only concern is the wieght of the unit. I currently have no problem setting up the 8" but I have heard that the 12" is a two man job. Does anyone else out there have a 12" lx200 that they set up themselves? :S
