Looking for a telescope I can attach to my HEQ5 for planetary season coming up. Pretty indifferent on specifics, so if you have an old SCT/Newt/Whatever lying around let me know. I am trying to do this for as cheap as possible, so a Dobsonian is what I’m ideally looking for.
Thanks for the generous offer Marc. I’m going to have to pass, since I’m going to be moving between wellington/chch. I also have a 150mm dob, which I may end up modifying to fit on my HEQ5.
Hi Chester,
I’ve got a 6″ f/5 Newtonian amoungst Malcolm’s telescopes. OTA only.
The focuser is not much good, (helical 0.96″) but the mirrors and tube are good.
How does $50 sound?
The tube has a bar with mounting bolts.
However, I do have a spare pair of 6″ rings that would probably fit.
How much for both the rings/scope in that case? Interested in mounting it on an HEQ5, I already have a dovetail
I just tried the rings. Nice rings. They will fit with about 3mm padding right around.
Say $70 rings and OTA.
