I live downtown now so if you want to grab lunch sometime, we can do that.

It would be good to see you again, Erik, you are a founding member of the L&O Subcommittee.
I have Jaegers 6" f/5, f/10, & f/15 lenses, as well as the 5" f/5, or I would have bought the f/5 from you.
I suppose we could bring some for-sale items, but it's looking like this one will be sparsely attended, so it's up to you.

Any interest in making it a mini swap meet?
BTW, in downsizing i scraped everything in my refractor except the lens, i will be selling it nationally if no local interest. So, last chance to keep a truly "rich field" objective in Utah.

Emulsion-based photography still has a few die-hard purists, but it's largely digital now. Many do narrowband imaging for false-color final images that are pretty darn good.
I mostly wanted the focuser just because it's old Jaegers. They weren't the most precise focusers around, though I have one that was re-worked by Jim Riffle (Astro Works) and is smooth as silk. Back in the day, the 2.7" focuser was designed mostly to accomodate those huge military-surplus Erfle eyepieces. I don't think there is a commercial imaging chip that is large enough to take advantage of a 2.7" image plane. Or if there is, most regular folks couldn't afford it.

No I do not, It had some issues even with the moto focus. In different circumstances i would have replaced with some of the very nice new tailpiece and a fancy custom focuser. Am I correct in thinking an oversized diameter is most important if you do photography. Does anyone do black and white anymore?
I had to make some quick and hard decisions on what to keep while i downsized.

will be good to see you again as well. I am going to take pictures of all items i still need to sell and I will give Utah locals one last chance to.
I am fully mobile again, as long as it is near a TRAX station.
I live downtown now so if you want to grab lunch sometime, we can do that.

It would be good to see you again, Erik, you are a founding member of the L&O Subcommittee.
I have Jaegers 6" f/5, f/10, & f/15 lenses, as well as the 5" f/5, or I would have bought the f/5 from you.
I suppose we could bring some for-sale items, but it's looking like this one will be sparsely attended, so it's up to you.

I am in a position to make it there now BTW.
Any interest in making it a mini swap meet?
BTW, in downsizing i scraped everything in my refractor except the lens, i will be selling it nationally if no local interest. So, last chance to keep a truly "rich field" objective in Utah.

Erik, congrats on the condo! But I'm sure losing a backyard observatory was bittersweet. Make sure they don't skimp on the AC! This heat has just been wiping me out. My shop uses a big swamp cooler that only lowers the temperature about 7 degrees, until about 10:00 AM. That's the biggest reason I start so early, to be out of there before 2:00 PM. The indoor temperature is usually 92 or 93 by 3 PM. On Thu, Jul 19, 2018 at 7:12 PM, Erik Hansen <zaurak@digis.net> wrote:
