The primary mirror is a 160mm heavy duty mirror cell with pushpull collimation screws and is aluminized with a silicon monoxide quartz overcoat providing 92% reflectivity and a resolving power of 0.72 arc seconds. The secondary mirror has an obstruction of approximately 25% linear approximately 6% of the total area. The optical tube assembly is diffraction limited at 14 wave in sodium light. The focuser is a 2 format metal helical rack and pinion focuser with a 2 to 1.25 adapter to enable the use of larger 2 eyepieces. The finderscope is Galileo's CIR electronic finder which is similar in design to the Tel Rad finder. Included with the DB 160 are a 1.25 25mm Astroscopic eyepiece, a 1.25 10mm Plossl eyepiece and a 3 element 3x Barlow. The 25mm is a 3 element, fully color corrected, modified Rank Kasspheric eyepiece with an apparent field of view of 52 degrees. The 10mm Plossl eyepiece is a 4 element fully color corrected eyepiece with an apparent field of view of 52 degrees.Galileo DB 160 Dobsonian Telescope Features and Benefits1300mm x 160mm optical tube assembly Easy to use Dobsonian mount in handsome cherry wood finish Diffraction limited optical tube assembly CIR electronic finderscope Large 2 metal helical rack and pinion focuser 2 to 1.25 adapter 25mm Astroscopic eyepiece 1.25 10mm Plossl eyepiece 3 element 3x barlow Galileo Plane
