There's definately stuff to look at :)
We are proud to announce our newest and largest dedicated Hydrogen-alpha
telescope.
The LS230THa/PT (pressure tuned) is a complete and dedicated Hydrogen-alpha
Solar Telescope.
Soon to become the largest aperture Solar Telescope currently available, the
LS230THa/PT will provide the highest level of performance ever produced in a
Solar Scope.
A precision aligned refractor with a fully un-obstructed 230mm Aperture.
The 100% unobstructed system will perform to the highest level at both low
and high magnifications. Utilizing advanced hi-contrast coatings and the new
Doppler True Pressure Tuning system the user will be able to experience an
un-paralleled level of visual and imaging performance.
The system is designed as a dedicated Hydrogen-alpha telescope. Unlike its
smaller LS152THa the system is not modular.

Hello
is there a chance that one day the 230 mm lunt H alpha will be deliverable with a changeable unit to convert it to Ca/K module ?

The LS230T is a dedicated Hydrogen-alpha Solar telescope. The optics were specifically designed to be optimized at the 656nm wavelength. This includes a highly specified IR reflective coating that is applied to the surface of the front objective element to remove most of the heat from the system.
A large format CaK system can be produced by utilizing the Lunt CaK Solar wedge along with a 150mm+ aperture ED/APO refractor. This will provide superior image quality when compared a standard doublet refractor system designed for a much longer wavelength. Please contact Lunt for more information…

Hi;
I ordered one of these, the delivery date keeps receending into the future. Your website stills says “delivery in the first part of 2011″ When are these really scheduled to be delivered?

Chris,
Give Rikki a call or an email, she should have all the information about your order.
