My Equipment

First of all, Thanks to my friend Eric and to his brother Glenn for selling me my first scope, a Meade 114EQ-D.

6-5-03 Added a homemade solar filter and camera adapter to my equipment.

6-5-03 Added a homemade Observation Chair to my equipment.

My current observation and imaging set up, Konus K1793 8" Newtonian reflector on a Meade LXD75 Autostar GoTo mount, logging and telescope control software from Sky Tools 2. Primary imaging camera is a Cannon Digital Rebel 300D. Not shown, Meade ETX90 guide scope driven by GuideDog freeware and Logitech QC4000 Pro webcam.

My newest addition is a Logitech QC4000 Pro webcam. I modified the case and removed the lens to work as a prime focus imager/guider camera.
