Hi, I was wondering if it is at all possible to reduce the magnification of the Ranger as anything nearer normal vision would be more suitable for my needs. Any help appreciated thanks

@diggerproud1 There is a guy on our forum that has separated the lens holder so you can use different lenses. He has used a 1X lens made for another Yukon scope I believe. His member name is DABOXASH. I suggest to goto the forum and find his post on it.

Thanks,

Jim

@OzSkySearch I think it is 1/4 ccd. What brand I don't know.

mine is broken, i have a loose connection or somthing on the video output because when my lcd screen gets scratchy and goes white the video output stops putting out, how do you take it apart to get to the inside of the video output port?

@videofan88 I would check cable and switch out tv/dvr before trying to dissasemble the Yukon.

[ufonv]

@videofan88 I would try another cable first and or dvr/tv, before trying to disassemble.

I guess you'd need a pair of those measuring devices the name escapes me, uses Millimeter steel ruler with thumb wheel and 2 thin nose measuring calipers or rods with pointed ends, my thread is 40.5mm for an Sanyo Xacti HD2000 so be aware of 0.5 measurements, once you've sust the thread size you can search Ebay for attachment lenses, try to get the repair engineers schematic drawings, thread size should be on there, maybe they will tell you if you ask em nicely. :)
