Re: Is UHTC the same as....Posted By john crilly |
No. The "Ultra High Contrast" lettering appeared a number of years before UHTC. I believe that all 12" SCT's had that lettering; I've never seen one without it. Both of mine did and they both had EMC coatings (clearly lettered on the side of the optical tube).

Tripod: Meade Giant field tripodPosted By john crilly |
Hi, Janet. Easiest way to tell a Giant tripod is the legs are 3" in diameter rather than the 2" diameter legs on the HD adjustable field tripod.

Nextar 11 gpsPosted By john crilly |
Hi, Kevin.
I dunno; I've been seeing those also and wondering why. Mine is great. I've had 10" and 12" LX200 Classics and this one is the one I'm keeping. I read the NexstarGPS Yahoo Group regularly (you might want to check it out) and there don't see m to be any horror stories. Just make sure the hand controller is at least 1.6 and the motor controllers are at least 3.0; earlier versions can't be updated by the user. Actually, none of 'em can just now, but C has been promising this capability "real soon now".

Astromart EtiquettePosted By john crilly |
Hi, Tim.
The experience I have had along those lines concerned an ad I had placed and subsequently marked "sold". A fellow contacted me and asked if he could use my photo in his current ad if he disclosd that it was a similar item. I told him that was fine, of course. Stealing images without attribution is a fraud on the buyer - it is implied that the photo is of the actual item.
Looking down the thread I notice the inevitable cries of "copyright violation". Sure - now quantify your damages and let's sue. What do you think... can we convince a court that you have been harmed to the extent of $50? I doubt it. Better give me a couple of grand to start, though.

how paypal payment works?Posted By john crilly |
It gets credited to your paypal account, where you can spend it OR they can send you a check or deposit it into a bank account for you. There are fees associated with the latter two options.
