[Lvas] Discovery 15" Truss Dob for sale

[Douglas Phillipson]

Well I've decided to put the Dob up for sale.  It's about 3 years old 
but in great condition.  It features:

1) ServoCat Jr  Motor control system>  
http://www.stellarcat.com/Pages/servocatjr.html
2) Argo Navis Digital Setting Circles>   
http://www.wildcard-innovations.com.au/
3) "Boundary Layer" evacuation fans installed.
4) Main Mirror fan
5) Custom made Laptop Shelf
6) Custom Made Battery Shelf
7) Upgraded 2" dual speed Crayford focuser.
8) Scope Cover

The Laptop and Battery shelves rotate with the scope so no cables are 
required on the ground.  The Argo Navis and ServoCAT have been upgraded 
recently to their newest software revs.  This scope has shown me some 
great views!  It has been a wonderful scope, but I need the money for 
other things.  Here is the manufacturers page: 

http://www.discovery-telescopes.com/discovery/td.html (The 15" F/5 model). 

They go for 3 grand new.  The ServoCAT goes for about  1,400.00.  The 
Argo Navis goes for about 500.00

I'll throw in:

1) A Laser Collimator,
2) A BLUG collimation tool, which is a great tool by the way.

3) A 4.8mm Nagler Eyepiece.
4) A 8mm Nagler Eyepiece.
5) A battery which will run the whole telescope for all night.
6) A instruction class for setting up, collimating and operating the scope.
