I get to spend 10k this coming year on a new mount with the following considerations...USED if I can find something..
1. @ least 100lb weight carrying capacity imaging
2. still portable (no part weighing more then 125 lbs.)
3. superb accuracy and ease of use(polar aligning, setup)
4. built to last
5. goto not required, but optical encoder digital setting circles are a must
6. interface with software(Maxim,The Sky, CCDSOFT etc.)
Could I have a top 5 list of favorites...?
