how frequently do you find your 703 in need?
how do you know?
and most of all--- how do you collimate the 703?

Mounting Intes Alter 703 mak on Nexstar8-GPS fork?

Posted By jere cunningham

hi all,
i have a very good intes micro alter 703 mak, with feathertouch, upgraded coatings etc, mounted on an AP706 gem. I'd like to put the mak on my nextstar8-gps mount by swapping out the C8 OTA for the 703.
is it too heavy, etc?? does it balance ok?
has anyone tried this? does it work well?
thnx!
