Pooh-Bah Registered: 9/16/2004 Posts: 1275 Hi Freddy, well it does what it's supposed to do, track planets at high powers accurate enough to make sketching more comfortable with Ortho's in the focuser it's very heavy though and I only used it perhaps 10 times because I'm not used to the hassle and set it only up when seeing is very good, not too many planets out to view too lately Thu Dec 14, 2006 2:27pm
