Greetings all: We have three ST-8300's that have failed in various ways (although I don't think any of the failures are CCD chip failures). Does Diffraction Limited still repair these cameras? If not, does anyone know of anyone who does? Thanks! R. Lee Hawkins Observatory Engineer Appalachian State University Boone, NC
It is usually possible to repair them. We have a good supply of STF main circuit cards. They work fine in ST-8300 cameras... after the upgrade your camera will be faster. If you would like to pursue that, @Tim can send you RMA instructions on Monday.
