<p>[QUOTE="kaparthy, post: 4518688, member: 57463"]I just picked up two of these:</p><p>[ATTACH]1119481[/ATTACH] a 10-inch and an 8-inch from the equipment manager of my local astronomy club. These are about 25 or 30 years old. The 8-inch has a bad board that cannot be fixed or replaced. I am taking that one to work to see if we can cobble a different encoder or something and drive it with that. The 10-inch works. My regular instruments are a 5-1/4 inch reflector and a 2-3/4 refractor. So, this will be a real treat for me. And I have plenty of time to read the manual because we have ten days of rain in the forecast.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
