Hello GAAC,

As you may have noticed, I do not make a habit of listing the scopes and accessories that people send me with sale information. I do not want to become a Cloudy Nights or Astromart. However, when a unique item like this becomes available I will occasionally make an exception:

Colin Cassie, the manager of the CMAS Brower Observatory in Whitefield, Maine is selling his 4" (102mm) Unitron 152 with drive and weight system, in excellent condition. You can see pictures and a description at:
https://www.cloudynights.com/classifieds/item/408512-4-unitron-152-with-drive-and-weight-system/.
He told me he would take less to a good home.

Here is my special offer. I will be at the Gloucester, Lane Community Center Friday evening for a short presentation. If you can make a deal with Colin in time, I will be happy to stop by and pick it up on the way down for delivery at the meeting. Just let me know.
