We use an Orion 120ST telescope, Orion 50MM guide scope with the Orion StarShoot auto guiding camera. Our main imaging camera is an Altair HyperCam 183C. The red wires you see above the guide scope is our yet to be completed dew prevention heater. There is also a heater on the main scope. Click on a portion of the picture to be taken to a closeup view and explanation of that item. (Yes, I just noticed the Altair 183 isn't plugged in.)
