Oh, this will help...

He called on “every State to require that all students stay in high school until they graduate or turn eighteen.”

Rather than addressing broken families and why poor kids don’t care about learning, our president thinks he’ll solve this problem by turning our failing public schools into prisons.

Interesting.. Leaker-in-Chief?

I'm not against anyone boasting their achievements, and I do give kudos to Obama for giving the "go ahead" when the time was right to get Osama, but.....

.....There are some things you just don't talk about!

STOP the politicians, President Obama and others, from politically capitalizing on US national security operations and secrets!

The Party of Government eroding free speech HR347

Posted By Jeffrey Counsil

It's both parties.. More proof the "government" just has 2 factions, the R's and D's.. All but 3 in congress approved it. Obama signed it into law in secret.. It's now a felony to protest...

Just this past year the President who campaigned on 'hope' and 'change'--announced some galling changes -- with Congress (for the most part) rubber stamping each and every death blow to the Bill of Rights. President Obama has claimed the right to declare anyone a 'terrorist' or 'terrorist sympathizer' based on nothing more than presidential opinion, and order their assassination. No evidence is required -- at least that the public can see. We are told to blissfully 'trust' our public officials even when they are unworthy of such trust. Now our right to protest, to be disruptive -- has been criminalized as a federal felony.

Perhaps Congress and the President will find their inner patriot and reverse this rape of our rights. It could happen. By the way -- can anyone pass the Prozac?


Time to flush the turds and replace Congress. >sad

Re: LX200 Classic

Posted By Jeffrey Counsil

Hi Gary, yes there are people who repair those. I can do some repairs (I own LX200 Classics) But you will have to remove the front power panel, and the mainboard from the bottom of the scope and send those with the handbox. Ideally both RA and Dec motor assemblies as well since they all work together as a unit. And there is also an option to convert your scope to use the Autostar (or Audiostar) as well. George Dudash has the "conversion" kits. Send me a PM for more details.

Does anyone offer a repair service on the electronic PCB's for the LX200 Classic unit? I reversed the 12 VDC input and now...Nothing.
Meade says they can't do anything, unit out dated.
Help!!
Thanks.
