Found some stuff on the net for this - but how practical is this idea - anyone have experience in converting a newt ota to a dob mount.

Hi there
I cant remember all the technical details as to why, but I had the same problem with my F/5 reflector using a webcam. You can't get focus.
I now use a Mak-Cas telescope and the results are great.
Sorry not solving your problem but just thought I'd let you know you are not alone
Attached are photos I took last night using a very cheap webcam.
