While you're here, how about checking out the Astronomy Book List ?

Gentlemen


Please, pay attention to the equipments listed just below:

TELESCOPE: Meade LX-200 16 " f/10 Schmidt-Cassegrain( purchased )
CCD: SBIG ST-8( purchased )
FOCAL REDUCER: Optec f/5 Wide Field( ??? )
ADAPTIVE OPTICS: SBIG AO-7( ??? )
COLOR FILTER WHEEL: Optec MAXFilter 2" Automatic Filter Selector( ??? )
FOCUSER: Van Slyke Super Power Focuser( ??? )

I understand that the chain " Telescope/CCD/Focal Reducer/Electrical
Focuser ", described just above, are all entirely compatible.

My main doubt is: Does the Van Slyke SPF( Super Power Focuser ) accept
the attachment of a SBIG AO-7 ? And an OPTEC 2" MAXfilter ?

As a standard equipment of my Meade 16" SCT, I have a Meade 2" diagonal.
Will the Van Slyke SPF work with this diagonal ?

I intend to send you, periodically, some questions related with the
choice of accessories and other topics, in order to optimize the
operation of these two equipments( Telescope + CCD ).

In anticipation, I'm very grateful for your patiente and attention
with all my inquiries.
