Default ETX-125 rear port adaptor

Hello,

Have any Meade ETX 125 users out there come across an adaptor that allows an
eyepiece to be attached to the rear port of an ETX 125? I have located
one - the "Schutan Visual Back" (
http://www.weasner.com/etx/shutan.html#scv_visual )- but it appears only to
be available in the US. All that UK retailers whom I have contacted can
offer is an (expensive) erecting prism.

Somebody must make one!

Regards,
Les Dickens

I thought Meade would make one. I got one with my ETX90 although I
made another (adjustable in length so I could get an ST4 inserted in
the rear port parfocal with an eyepiece in the 90-degree port). Is the
ETX125 a different size thread to the ETX90?
