Has anyone used this mount for A/P? Can it track for long exposure w/o any problems?
What do you think of this mount as far as performance/tracking/goto capabilities?


Thanks for your help

I like mine, tracks great and goto gets me real darn close if not right on, just make sure you polar alignment is done right. : ) Have not tried A/P but I am sure it can be done.
