There are only two types of dovetail bars and saddles. A "Vixen style" and a "Losmandy style". One can be mistaken for the other. You probably have a Vixen style. tighten both knobs and you should be OK. Many dovetail bars have a screw hole in the end to place a bolt as a safety device if the bar should slip on the saddle -- the bolt would catch it and prevent the scope from falling off.

This is a very nice refractor style telescope. First I would suggest that you locate a local Astronomy club and have the members help you with the scope. It is probably mounted on an equatorial mount which must be polar aligned first in order to use the telescope.

Additionally the small finder scope must be aligned with the main tube so you can use it to locate objects in the sky. Read my Equatorial Mount TIP on my profile page.

Hi everyone

Every PUK code is unique so nobody can tell you your PUK number, but i will tell you what you can do!
1) If you still have your packet that your Sim Card came in, you should find your PUK number in there, if you don't have the packet, please read bellow.

2) You must get a phone that is on the same network as your phone and call the networks Customer Care and ask them for your PUK number, they will ask you for your phone number, then they will tell you your PUK number. Once you have done this, you will be able to reset your Pin number so you will be able to go into your phone again.

Please also remember to give this solution a FixYa! rating if it helps you.

Kind regards
Dustin Ellse
