Well, the subject say it all. For the older lx90 gps. I bought it 2 or 3 months previous to the acf conversion. :(Can we expect that meade or some technical office do something like an upgrade of older ( not too older
) non-acf lx90`s
?

You may be able to send it back to them for a conversion but it would be at your cost for the conversion and your cost for the new optics.

Meade will change your optics. I had an 8" LX90 with the EMC coatings. I sent to Meade and they put in a new primary, secondary and corrector with the ACF. They also repainted my tube and put the "ACF" stickers on the sides. It cost about $620.00 to do the job and they had my scope for about 4 weeks. Call them first, let them know what you want to do, so they will be expecting your scope and have the order ready.
