A quick Schmidt-Cassegrain provides a wider field of view, but also requires precise collimation. You\u2019ll want to be able to adjust it easily. With Bob\u2019s Knobs for the Meade 10 inch widefield f\/6.3, you replace the screws on the secondary holder with larger knobs, allowing you to adjust the alignment by hand.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This set is intended for the 10 inch Meade SCT in the widefield version with f\/6.3. With a Schmidt-Cassegrain telescope, you adjust the collimation using the screws on the secondary holder. You will find more of this type of viewer in the catadioptric telescopes<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Replace the screws one by one and then check with a bright star to see if the rings are centered properly. Without a clear sky, you can also use a artificial star for the star test<\/a> use.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For a 10 inch SCT with f\/10 and three screws, there is a set for the 10 inch f\/10<\/a>.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
