Scopes threaded for Solarmax 90

Post by astroshot »

Folks,
Just wondering, what scopes have threads at the front of their OTA to take a Solarmax 90 etalon over the objective.
I know the Skywatcher Star Travel 102 has, or at least had (as I have one - blue OTA).
I understand some Televues have too? Which ones?
Any other scopes?
Just curious, that's all.
Thanks,
Michael.

The older SM90s fit the TV101/102 scopes, and most of the Synta 100ED f9 OEM scopes (Skywatcher, Celestron, Orion...) Not sure the newer SM90 II or III threads are the same...

Thanks Bob.
I have one of the older SM90s.
Didn't realise the 100 f9s were compatible as well.
Thanks,
Michael.
