Hello All,
                    Picked up this refractor and mount as part of a package deal. Reviews are not too promising from what I could find. Have a booklet and one in German also. The mount powers on but controller is a no go. I thought I had read that these could use a Meade Autostar controller ?? The gentleman who used it passed and most of the stuff seems rather old. I wanted the Orion EQ-G and the ZWO 36mm filter sets. Both of which along with the other Badder and Orion filters more than exceed what I paid. Mount seems light weight and flimsy but I could be wrong. Also picture was for photo op only without the cw bar this is as far as I go. Appreciate any and all info.....

So today I got the scope paired up with my Z73 for a star test. Little worried about the positioning may have to go with a longer dovetail.....and of course the next couple of days rain is in the forecast....
