Does anyone know what the price range for selling a dynascope f8.5 6 inch standard model. It is all original with matching serials for the telescope and mount....
Around 300 dollars, usually. Peace, Rod Mollise Rod's new book: _Choosing and Using a New CAT_ Time to waste? Waste it with Uncle Rod's Astro Blog: ...
Just added a 80mm fan to cool the primary on my 8" Dynascope. Huge difference in cool down and the best concentric star test patterns at 250x this winter....
Nice job on the fan... I thought that would be a nice purpose for that hole... I would pop it off when I store the unit as I store the tube on its screw points...
I don't want to cut lightening patterns into the dob base. You could park your car on my dob base! It's very strong and stable for the long OTA. It's still...
Not much going on in the world of Dynascopes? Very quiet group. Nothing new? Let's post some new pictures of our scopes. Anyone recoat a mirror, repaint a...
Got a simple collimator for my scope this past Christmas... Waiting for the nice weather to get it out and do it.... I had a mirror recoated this past fall... ...
Added a stand/shelf to my dob mount for my netbook. Will post a picture when finish is dry. Tired of walking back and forth into house to use computer for...
Been enjoying the winter sky. I use a step stool at the telescope to hold my EP case and an eeePC with Stellarium to help me find things. I am often as quick...
Hey Guys - I just purchased a Dynascope 6 on Astromart for $200 - will be receiving it on Monday - looks to be in great shape. I have read all sorts of bad...
Welcome, Lyle. Hope your new scope turns out okay. If you think the LX90 is good, wait until you see the 6". I guess you meant the Criterion RV-6 Newtonian....
Hi all, Just a heads up. In the Apr. DISCOVER magazine on p.25 is an ad for the Podcast StarTalk. In the ad the host, Neil deGrasse Tyson is standing next to...
George, Did you just add AAT or has that been there without me noticing it before? Chris In a message dated 3/10/2011 10:57:31 P.M. Eastern Standard Time, ...
Chris, I just stuck it in there between my names as humor since I always suggest buying that book, but I do now have a general ticket, kd0nme and have been on...
I was wondering what is a good way to finish the two ends of an RV-6 tube? I've seen the flexible automotive trim used and I've also seen what looks to be...
Hmmm... I'm not sure what "bad press" you are referring to. The optics on the RV-6 are really good. There are lots of mods that people are doing now to take...
What a great time to get into the hobby. The solar flux broke 100 for the first time in about 6 years about 2 weeks ago and last weekend the numbers really...
I used black car door edge molding (my tube us black). It's a nice clean finish with one caveat: I wasn't aware that the molding had an adhesive glue inside....
The machined (or maybe just polished) cast aluminum rings were optional on the RV-6, standard on the Custom or Deluxe scopes. I don't know if anyone is making...
Protection on the ends of RV's is good. The light color outer layer chips very easily and the older it gets the easier it chips. If nothing else, put a few...

Where is the scope located, as shipping is not a good thing. Photos of the scope will also be a great aid. If it is within 200-300 miles of Omaha, Nebraska,...
I'd like to know where you are located as well. Chris In a message dated 3/16/2011 7:51:48 P.M. Eastern Daylight Time, requalamath@... writes: I have a...
