Can you use it with Meade ETX 90?

It works with a CPC800, so it should work with your scope too. You will need eyepieces in identical matching pairs. A 2 inch diagonal supports the weight better than the smaller diagonal, but it is not essential.

I don't see why it wouldn't since you can input your lat-long. Good question for either telescope.com or Orion telescopes and binoculars hot line.

In a word, yes. Just remember your setup to see if the 90 degree angle will fit.

The Celstron site - http://www.celestron.com/portal/skyq-link.html - lists the compatible mounts for this unit. It is not so much the telescope, but the mount used for it.

No... You have to buy a very serious lens for this teleconverter. I figured this out after I bought it, now looking at camera compatible spotting scopes.

yes it can be used with any 1.25 telescope I use it on a 80eq a 4.5" and 10" dobsonian.

Yeah, it'll work just fine. All of the Celestron, Orion, Astro-Tech, etc. scopes use the Vixen-style dovetail. Heck, a lot of those scopes come out of the same factories, and just get different brands stamped on them. And I know for a fact that this finder works with Celestron's NexStar 102 tube because I have both of them and have used them together. You're safe!

i'm not sure that it will. the optical tube of a 90mm refractor may be more weight than the lcm can handle (its also got a longer moment arm length than the 80mm refractor tube model). the Astromaster 90mm tube has a built in fixed dovetail mount, but it is short and not at the perfect balance point for the tube. balance is pretty important for the goto mounts, or it will have difficulty tracking or even possibly wear out gears. also, the dovetail on the Astromaster tube is BDC, and the LCM mount is at 90 degrees from BDC.....so the focus knobs will be off by 90 degrees as well.....so focusing will be more difficult. again, i think that its not gonna work imho

It will work with any standard 1.25 inch eyepiece adapter or focuser, but i second the previous answer regarding tracking. I suggest downloading Stellarium (free planetarium software) and entering your telescope and the sensor specs into the telescopes plugins so you can see what the field of view would be in you 80 mm, and how quickly objects move out of that field of view. If it's too small, and you don't have mount that is tracking the sky, you might end up just being frustrated.

Yes, but the Hopper is not compatible with your existing wiring & satelite dish. You just can't swap out the Hopper with a standard DVR/receiver from Dish. You need a whole new setup.

I too have a 90SLT but I want to use it for Astrophotography. To those that said no because of the threads... Can this fit inside the Celestron T-Adapter and be held in place via the thumb screw?

I know that I got Celestron 1.25" plössi accessories kit works great with my Meade, so I'm no expert, but I think as long as the diameter is 1.25" then your good. Hope this helps you. I will say this, they sent me the wrong tube when I ordered and received a 60mm instead of the 70mm and I swore I'd never order a meade again because their customer service (meade directly) weren't accommodating and I never bothered exchanging it because of the hassle involved.

Yes you can. I would go with this: Orion 08890 1.25-Inch Premium Telescope Accessory Kit (silver)I plan on going with that same set once I can afford to get this telescope. lol

Yes, you just need the appropriate thread adaptor for the rear cell attachment or an adaptor that fits the eyepiece holder. Then a T-thread to your DSLR's lens mount adaptor. I have made some great shots of the moon with this telescope and one of those above setups.

Another thought: You may want to consider getting an equatorial wedge for your scope. That converts the alt-azimuth drive to an equatorial drive. Celestron sells one.

Maybe! It depends on the level of accuracy required by the analysis. To get a close approximation, my eTrex 20 works just fine. Given time, clear skies and an unobstructed position it provided elevations within plus or minus 2 feet.
