I don't usually use this adapter.
I removed the large port adapter and then turned up a new part that fits my
crayford focuser and threads directly on the 3.125 threads of the OTA. The
center hole in my adapter is 2.3" The draw tube of the focuser can actually
go into the OTA if needed.

Brad and Beevo,
Thanks for the suggestions. Brad, the link you gave is what I am looking
for. Beevo, I also found the same kind of adapter at your Lumicon
suggestion.
I have dial-up and it is becomming increasingly impossible to browse the
internet with it. It should not be this way and the only reason I can
see as to why it is is that as speeds increase web pages are loaded with
more and more stuff you don't want that just slow things down. Then
speeds increase, then because of the faster speed more stuff is added,
then speeds are increased again because things are slower - ad finitium.
Thus, just suggestions, like what you gave, are helpful to orient me in
the right direction.
Stan

remove the electronic focuser.
