HELP. I am in the market to replace my LX-10 with a newer more automated used SCT. I want to get some GOTO functionality. Can anyone giver me the skinny on the differences between the LX-90 and the LX-200. There seems to be quite a difference in the used prices for these two scopes.
Thanks.
:S

Help! After having my CPC1100 in storage for about 2 years I have found drips of something ( I think grease) on the secondary (apparently a known problem with storing the scope with the tube pointed downward).
My problem is that Celestron wants me to ship it to them in Southern Cal for cleaning. That is going to be at least $300 in shipping and another $400 for cleaning etc.
Can anyone point me to some information on accessing the secondary in these scopes and how to clean them? 8O
Thanks for any help.
