[AZ-Observing] Re: Meade 216XT CCD Camera

Some of the deep sky observers maay be interested.

I have a Meade 216XT CCD camera. It has only been used a dozen times 
and is in new condition.  See the Meade web site for product details.

http://www.meade.com/catalog/meade_pictor/meade_pictor_216xt.htm
and
http://www.meade.com/catalog/meade_pictor/index.htm

It has many nice features, B&W CCD (TC-255), 16 bit, thermoelectric 
cooled and regulated. In addition to imaging it can also be used as 
an auto guider.

It requires a serial port and 12 VDC @ 1.2 Amp (for cooler). I've 
used it with a Macintosh and Virtual PC (Win 98) and with a Dell PC 
with Win 2000. The software has many nice features, but image 
download time is a bear. Once focus, position and exposure are set, 
it is straight forward, but slow. I have the original Pictor software 
diskettes, but the latest software is free for download at the Meade 
web site.

The reason I'm selling it is it is just sitting unused and someone 
who has the interest might make better use of it. The original (and 
current) cost - $695 US$. I'll sell it for about half that or $350.00 
US$ plus shipping. I have just one so it's first come basis.

Anyone interested, please contact me off the list. phxjeff@xxxxxxxxxxx
