Hi,


I am coming close to the start of the observatory construction, a 10x10 roll off roof. I was wondering where the pier should be placed? In the center, off set? I will have a large refractor on a pier tech pier with an AP 1200 mount.


Thanks,

Marc zukoff

Fork mounted SCTs need to be offste to the south. GEM mounts do not need to be offset.
