Double Stack filter for Lunt 60 arrived!

Post by salvo lauricella »

Hi all,
today the new Double Stack filter for my Lunt 60 arrived, and of course it is raining :) :)
Probably most of you remember that some months ago I received a double stack filter that was decontacted :evil:
I sent it to the shop and the shop sent it to USA for repair…
This is the new one and hope everything will be ok this time.
I hope everything will be fine for you too.

Salvo:
It is really nice to share our feelings when we receive a new or old accessory, that is the only time that we look with attention the boxes, housings etc.. and we think, I will keep the shipping box... :roll:
Enjoy your toy and show us how it performs. :D
Saludos,
Eric.

Salvo,
Lunt Solar Systems is awesome. I have always heard their customer service is good. And the etalon came in a nifty little case. My Meade Coronado etalon came in a cardboard box without such a case. That alone says a lot for Lunt. While I do like my Coronado SM II 60, if I did it again I would go Lunt. I believe Lunt has an edge over Meade Coronado in a number of ways.

Congratulations and clear skies!

James
