Hi Gary,
I enjoy my TV 55 a bunch... other fav's with that scope are the Pan
35 and Nag 20.
Have fun!

Greetings all,
I'm the new owner of a C14 with Fastar, purchased via Astromart
from a
member of this group. I share a three telescope roll-off roof
building in
central Ohio and presantly have a pier mounted 8" SCT there. The
other two
scopes are 15" and 18" Obsessions.
While waiting impatiently for the C14 to arrive, I'm trying to
learn as
much about it as I can. Although I expect it to be mainly used for
CCD
imaging, I will want to look through it and will need appropriate
eypieces.
So, my first question relates to this. What are the favorite
eyepieces for
this 3910mm fl beast? I usually use a 19mm Panoptic with the 8"
(2032mm),
that will be rather short for the 14", and is a 1.25" barrel
optic. Is the
TV 55mm worth the cost in your opinion?
Another area of concern is mirror flop. There must be many
different
ways to reduce or eliminate this on the C14, are there references
and/or
favorites? Is there an engineering drawing or exploded image of
the C14
available someplace?
Thanks for your help.
Regards,
Gary Burk
