Re: Coronado Solar Max II 60 mm modification for big aperture?
I no longer have this telescope but as far as I remember sweet spot was still fine and the view was very detailed.
I already have a plan to make another modification using Istar 127mm F8 objective, Lunt LS100 DSII and PST etalon as double stack.
