I gave the display model a cursory exam in the local Costco and it seemed overtaxed by the 90 mm refractor - particularily the azimuth axis had a fair amount of play. I am interested in the mount for mounting my Lunt 60 mm solar scope on it as my permanent setup loses the sun about noon through the fall and winter and this mount would allow me to observe and image from a better location. This is my first "post" as far as initiating a subject. thanks - Dwight -------------------- LS60THa/B1200 Cerevolo 8" F5 MN EM200,Meade Research Series & DS2090,EQ6 SkyScan Mts 13.1 Dob, 16" Eq Newt Meade 10"SN 9X63,16X70,25X100 binos ToU cam,MX7C,HX916,Canon 300D,LPI Post Extras:       Pages: 1 Previous   Index   Next   Threaded   Extra information 11 registered and 13 anonymous users are browsing this forum.
