4" TV-102 kicked 8" Discovery Dobs

Posted By Marc Zukoff

Hi Ron,


I can only speak from my experience where my Teleport 10" consistently revelaed more planetary detail and split tighter doubles than my AP 155. I do not know what type mirror or the quality of the mirror in your dob, but the Zambuto in the Teleport was great.

Sol,


Beautiful drawing. I was out last night at around the same time about 40 miles south of you. With my Tak 152, I saw nothing like the detail you have illustrated. You are very lucky to have found a place in N.J. with such steady air. Are you observing away from homes?

Pearls Sought for the Visual Use of AP155

Posted By Marc Zukoff

Hi,


I have a pier-tech pier. This is a pier that allows lift up to 20". I have mine permanantly mounted in an observatory, but there are casotors that make it portable. See the website.

203MM F/7's FOR SALE

Posted By Marc Zukoff

Hi,


I deleted my add. I will not see such a fine telescope depreciate to such a degree. I paid over 25K for mine and will hang onto it rather than sell for 19K. That is 25% deprectiation in a year. Very poor value.
