David Rankin joined SLAS a couple of days ago and on the same day requested an album on the SLAS Gallery. He now has some images posted. Have a look: http://www.slas.us/gallery2/main.php?g2_page=3 He's included a story with pictures about his finding a Meade 8" LX10 at the bottom of Lake Meade (I know Meade scopes have had problems but I didn't think anyone would throw one in the lake... <grin>). David is not on UA but I think I'll invite him. patrick
I hope he sold it with a "Salvage" title, lol. On Sun, Jun 21, 2009 at 4:31 PM, Patrick Wiggins <paw@wirelessbeehive.com>wrote:

I can't think of anything better to do with a Meade scope and/or mount. Kim
