Permanently installed 6" f/15 D&G refractor on Parsec/12 equatorial mount. Its been a while since I shared this here; in the meantime I upgraded to the wonderful Astro-Physics focuser and new backplate; tube shortened a bit to accommodate use of binoviewers...modifications and installations performed by Barry Griener of D&G in nearby Pennsylvania.
