A User's Guide to the Meade LXD55 and LXD75 Telescopes PDF
by Martin Peston
Part of the The Patrick Moore Practical Astronomy Series series
Description
I have owned telescopes for over 25 years since I was a young lad.
I purchased an LXD55 AR-6 Refractor in 2002, and was one of the first to own one in the UK.
I am also a proud owner of an LXD75 SC-8. Armed with these two very different telescopes, I have spent many hours searching the skies for interesting objects using Meade's Autostar Goto facility.
My motivation to write a book about the LXD Goto telescope series, first came from comments about an LXD55 AR-6 Refractor review, that was published on the LXD55 .com website.
From then on, I have had regular emails from people asking technical questions about the telescope, and which model is best suited for them.
Whilst attending Star parties in the UK, I found that many LXD owners would struggle to use them even at a basic level, especially if they have never owned or used an equatorially mounted Goto telescope before.
Since the first LXD55 models came out in early 2002, owners have struggled to find useful information to help them use the telescopes to the best advantage.
There have been mixed reactions about its quality and performance .
Hence, this book is directed towards those who are new to Goto and the LXD telescope.
