Hi all
I'm about to take delivery of an Ultrawedge for my Meade 12" LX200gps. I plan to piggyback an 80mm Orion EON (6.6lbs) using an ADM rail and rings. Is this too ambitious weightwise? Would a 72mm Orion EON (5.2lbs) be more suitable. The difference is only 1.4lbs.
Also, for autoguiding I am looking at Guidedog and a Shoestring USB Guide port interface device and RJ12 cable to connect to the Autoguider port.
I am also thinking about a Canon 40d but that will come later.
Any suggestions or comments please?
