Item for Sale
Orion SkyView Pro Telescope Mount with upgrades (for astrophotographers)

Asking Price
350.00 USD

Item Location
Alda, NE (United States)

Item Description
Telescope not included... Mount only: Great for visual or astrophotography for scopes up to 20 lbs.

This is an upgraded Orion SkyView Pro German Equatorial mount. All metal head with enclosed 360 degree worm gears on BOTH axis for smooth rotation. This unit has been upgraded with the TrueTrack Dual Axis DC Drive set for tracking and guiding. In addition, it has been upgraded with the Intelliscope upgrade kit which computerizes the mount. More than 14,000 objects in the Intelliscope Computerized Object Locator. (The Intelliscope system is non-motorized, meaning it is a Push-To system). I have all of the documentation that came with this system and upgrades: The SkyView Pro mount, the TrueTrack Dual DC drives, and the Intelliscope encoder system. I also have all of the original documentation for the mount and upgrades.

I will need to get a total weight on this for shipping, however I can ship via UPS Ground very reasonably (my business gets negotiated rates). Prices are especially reasonable if shipping to another business (as opposed to residential). I will need to calculate actual shipping to your zip code.

Asking $350 plus shipping.

Took the following pics with my phone. No idea what I did to make some of them come out as B&W. :\

bump!
Note: I have negotiated rates via UPS available for shipping so they are quite reasonable, especially if to a business address. Example: a remote west Texas location calculates to about $27 for the 50 lbs of equipment.

Can you post some better and more detailed photos?

Also, does this include the tripod?
