My 11" F/5.4 Starmaster with a Zambuto mirror, which I bought in 2000, has become a classic. How time flies! It has provided wonderful views at Pacific NW star parties.

The TV-85 I bought used 5 years ago (made in 2002 according to the serial number) is not far behind in attaining classic status. The older Televues do have that classic look. 

I had 2 of them the F/5.4 AND 4.3.

My NP101 was built in 2002 with the focuser upgrade, I searched for over a decade up here in Canada before I found one. I drove 400 mi. return, quick, to pick it up, lol.
