15” f/4.2 Premium DHQ Discovery Dobsonian

15” f/4.2 split tube Dobsonian, great optics (Ronchi test photo of mirror included). The scope is solid tube, which helps prevent dew, but breaks into two pieces for easier transport. I’ve had this scope out at Cherry Springs, PA on a night when every other truss tube dob around was shut down because of dew but my scope just kept on chugging. Scope gives great deep sky views but the tube is short enough that you don’t need a stepstool. Scope includes a Telerad finder and an AstroGizmos scope cover. I love this scope but is getting to be too much for me to transport in a Prius so I’m downsizing to a smaller dob. Will deliver anywhere in a 150 mile radius of Trenton, NJ. Otherwise, pick up only.

Price: $1800
