Jack, that is what I planned to do also.I bought an Antares 2" Prime Focus Camera Adaper, from Agena Astro Products...if you unscrew the adapter the threads will fit on the FR 6.3 or FR 3.3...but I wasn't sure if I have enough travel. I found on ScopeStuff an adapter ring (FRC6)that should fit the 150HD. That should subtract a least an Inch for the tube. Also I'm going to get 2" Crayford 2 speed focuser(FRM2)...the length looks shorter and much better quality than the piece of junk I have on it now.
Here is the link from ScopeStuff....
