I have a 14.5" night sky truss dob, with a sky commander, and an equatorial platform, was in my 30's when I bought it, now I'm in my late fifties, it's not as light or portable as it used to be, and neither am I. Getting it up on the equatorial platform and all aligned isn't as easy as it used to be. I know technology has progressed, was wondering what would be involved in retrofitting it to be a Go-to, in terms of both the options and cost.
