David Pofahl of Blythe,
CA |
|
 |
"This ATS pier gets a lot of
attention wherever it's set up. It's quite solid, and collapses
as a single unit for easy transport. The design, materials
and workmanship are wonderful."
|
|

AP gear."

I need. A wonderful product."
|
|

Garth Buckles of California:
|
|
 |
"My ATS pier provides excellent stability for long exposure
imaging. It's the best designed and easiest-to-use field pier
I've seen. It's a perfect match to my AP900 mount and scope."

Gain Lee of Huddersfield, England:
|
|
 |
"The ATS portable pier has proven to be extremely rigid,
stable and lightweight. It's easy to set up. The 10" OD pier
supports my Celestron C-14, Takahashi FS-152, Sky90 and Paramount
ME with strength to spare."
|
|
Greg Piepol: Northern Virginia
Astronomy Club |
|
|
|
"The
ATS pier is a sturdy, well-built pier that easily handles
the loads of two Ha telescopes and accessories. Fitted with
an AP adapter plate, the ATS pier works wonderfully with my
AP900 mount. I find it much easier to carry than other piers.
It is lightweight, has a carrying handle and the legs remain
attached. A great choice."

Dave Jurasevich of California:
|
|
 |
"The ATS portable pier provides the kind of rock-solid
stability required for long exposure astro-imaging. It's a beautifully-crafted
pier, combining elegance and functionality in a compact package."

J. Gordon of California says:
|
|
 |
"I have been using the Advanced Telescope Systems pier for
several years. The portable ATS pier and my Astro-Physics 1200 mount
provide a very rigid platform for my CCD photos."
|
|
Peter Natscher of California says: |
|
 |
"The ATS pier holds my 10" Maksutov-Cassegrain telescope
with accessories very sturdily. A strong rap on the scope settles
under 1 second at high power. This makes observing much more enjoyable
and allows for easier focusing."
"Your pier works much better than the A-P pier with respect
to shorter time for pier set-up, less scope vibration and a more
attractive and professional look."
"...The fit and finish are excellent..."
|
|
Bob Lockwood of San Diego, CA
|
|
 |
"I built myself a portable pier, but it was too heavy and
took too long to
set up. My ATS pier is more stable, lightweight, and takes only two minutes
to set up. It looks great loaded with my equipment."
|
|
Carl Wellman of San Antonio, TX
|
|
"Great products, well worth the wait."
|
Gerry Cichocki of Newark, DE
|
|
"This ATS pier looks and functions beautifully. I will not hesitate
to recommend your piers."
|
Robert Tremblay of Quebec, Canada
|
|
"The ATS is a very stable and well-manufactured pier. I am very
pleased."
|
Jonathan Estes of Jacksonville,
FL
|
|
"I could have paid $800 more for a PWT Monolith, but it
simply would have been a waste of money. This ATS pier continues
to exceed my expectations."
|
Joseph Angelone of Arlington, VA
|
|
"You guys do real quality work...an excellent piece of equipment.
I'm not sure how I found you, but I'm glad I did."
|
William Bauer of San Diego,
CA
|
|
"This pier has been awesome, and it will be the last thing I
ever part with...and only then to be replaced by another ATS. However,
that won't be necessary any time soon. Great product!"
|
Harry Gillung of Myrtle
Beach, SC
|
|
"Chriss at OPT says you guys are the best, and worth the wait.
He was right. This pier is beautiful, and I am 100% totally satisfied."
|
Bob Luffel of Alpine Astronomical:
|
|
"I was very impressed with the functionality and value
of the ATS portable pier. I have been frustrated by most other bolt-together
tripods and piers. The ATS leg mountings are solid, and their design pays
attention to correct structural principles. The construction and welds
are well done. Overall, very elegant."
Mr. Luffel is a mechanical engineer.
