Pier of the 4" Polarex - Unitron equatorial mounted refractor
The 16cm f:15 Gajdusek Kozelsky refractor is installed on the Fullerscopes MK IV mount. This heavy duty mount from the 1950's carries the refractor very well.
Now it will be possible to observe more objects because the Fullerscopes has the GOTO function.
