PlaneWave CDK600 Install at Sierra Remote Observatories

What another enjoyable installation trip to setup a PlaneWave CDK600 this time for Space Elements Corporation. The client chose to have Sierra Remote Observatories as their telescope hosting facility due to the quality seeing conditions and well-trained technical staff onsite.

Thanks Marcos!

Outstanding, but you left out all the geeky fun stuff. First Light, Polar alignment and some imaging.

Thanks for watching Tom! Sadly it stormed that night on the install, so I was unable to do the fun on-sky testing.

amazing, whats a setup like that cost?

[@MattDieterich]

The CDK600 package itself with the wedge is $95k. Once accessories and cameras are added on it is usually around $130k.
