Bob Dobber Posted December 22, 2022 Share Posted December 22, 2022 Hi all - I think I need to collimate my MN190 and am highly terrified of this prospect. Does anyone have any "go to" instructions for achieving this perhaps?? thanks! Rob Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+Bino-viewer Posted December 22, 2022 Share Posted December 22, 2022 I think Ron or Clive on here used to have this scope until recently, and would be a good bet to help you out. Bob Dobber 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+RonC Posted December 22, 2022 Share Posted December 22, 2022 I had no problems collimating my MN190. treated it exactly the same as any other Newtonian scope. What device are you using? I used a laser collimator and found it kept it spot on for a long time. Ron Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ron Thanks @RonC - I have collimated a 200PDS before now with (as far as I could tell) reasonable results. Do I not need to adjust the bolts on the front of the corrector plate at all? I do need to do some reading up to be honest, but that was kind of the reason for the original post: to ask if anyone had anywhere I should go and read up... Thanks!

+RonC Posted December 23, 2022 Share Posted December 23, 2022 Yes you may need to adjust the corrector plate screws but not by much. Plenty of YouTube video's about collimation. Ron Bob Dobber 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
