meade lxd650

Posted By David Petersen

I may be able to get a meade ldx(orlxd)650 that's been barely used. I currently have a 6" dob. I was wondering what would be a good price for it and are there any problems with it?

tightening up the dec

Posted By David Petersen

I recieved a cg-3(i think) mount from someone and noticed the dec axis has a about 5-10 degree play in it. What can I do to remove it?

Jon, after sending some time finding my metrics, a few turns of the ratchet and it's much better. Thanks smile Dave
