Dan,

What's the minimum and maximum height of the SCT focuser with the draw tube all the way in and out?

This could be what I've been looking for to add to my Nexstar 8 GPS. Nothing else seems to be short enough to give me enough clearance between the back of the tube and the base.

Thanks Dan. Unfortunately, that's still too long for my use
