Here is my Super Polaris mounting with a Great Polaris C102 4"f10 achromat. Normally a SP-C102F 4"f9 apochromat belongs on the SP and this GP belongs on a Great Polaris. The Super Polaris has a drive and the GP doesn't so I'm using the SP and I'd forgotten how much purple the achromat shows over the apochromat so I have the GP on the SP for the time being.

My 4 inch refractor: no name.  On a modern GP2 mount.  I think the telescope is a Vixen

Pulsar 102M-  102mm, f13, was originally on an alt-az mount.

Takahashi TS-80, cooling for some Jupiter views in the cold.

Picked out a 12.5mm TPL for the occasion.
