Subject: Re: [Astro_IIDC] Re: focal reducer for DMK

Willie, I could have been more specific too!..Your Celestron f6.3FR is actually 0.63x & a Meade f3.3 FR one like I have is 0.33x..The Mogg reducers are 0.3x & 0.6x. You can swap them around & use either by detaching a part from the train..Here`s a couple of photos showing the Mogg f0.3 reducer attached to the standard TIS nosepiece & a shot of the component parts of this reducer...Steven Mogg is actually from the south coast of NSW Australia where I live although 700-800 kms from me!

I have a celestron .63 FR that screws onto the back of my SCT, but I have no way to attach that to the big scope, at least I havent figured out how.
