Availablity of the Polar Alignment Scope for LXD55
      #3431982 - 11/05/09 09:46 PM

Where should I look to get a replacement Polar Alignment scope for the Meade LXD 55 mount?
Thanks in advance.

Meade - they have them just ordered a new one for my LXD75 (has a real off/on switch). Expensive with shipping, BTW $35:(.

My earlier thanks were premature: Couldn't find them on the Meade Website. Jeff - can you tell me how to maneuver to them?

Thanks (in advance this time).

Call their support/repair line. It took about a week to get it. They took a CC over the phone.
