    Hi, yesterday I ordered a new Tec 140 refractor and it will be setting on a Vixen SXD2 mount. I am super excited to be able to obtain one of these refractors without any wait time.

    Congratulations on your new Refractor Tecs are the bomb.. there is nothing like a 140 to make the hair on ones neck stand up! Hope to see a report on the experience, as I have never owned a new telescope...

    You will love it, it is a great platform for visual or photography, light and solid with a perfect focuser and more than adequate dew shield.

    Hi, I am using the TEC 140mm for visual and can't wait for first light. I will be taking it to TSP next year.
