There are no good vibrations when it comes to a mount. My experience with several weeks of trying to deal with noise and vibrations boil down to a simple modification you can do in 15 minutes!

This is the final part of my three part review devoted to the ETX-LS. It focuses on the computerized mount and how it performed over a series of observing sessions. I conclude with my final thoughts on using the Meade ETX-LS.

Make your own red LED chart lamp out of readily available components. An easy DIY project.

Impressive performance in a pretty package

A quick first look

Part one covered my brief impression of the physical characteristics of the telescope after setup and a brief night out under the stars. Now that I have had a chance to take the ETX-LS out for a few long observing sessions, how did the ETX-LS perform optically? Find out more.

Mostly good Chinese made scope with just a couple of irritations.

A friend of mine has built the mother of all alt-azimuth mounts.
