Welecome to the P-A-D Observatory

	My primary OTA (optical tube assembly) is a Meade ETX 125 UHC. I've removed it from the rather flimsy fork mount it came with and remounted it on a CG-5 clone equatorial mount. This mount is much heavier and tracks better than the original goto mount. The small white OTA on the side is an 80mm Shorty from Orion. I originally bought it for a guide scope but found the Meade mount was to light too support both scopes. With the CG-5 it works great.
The cameras I use are a Meade LPI (Lunar and Planetary Imager), a Meade DSI (Deep Sky Imager), and a Nikon D60. In the picture above you can see the 125 isconfigured with an eyepiece at prime focus and another eyepiece with the projection adapter attached, on the diaganol.	Eyepiece Projection Rig
