Having it all setup in an Observatory means I can keep it all locked down optically and mechanically which makes it a lot easier to get multiple night imaging done.
I still may go down the OAG path if I have to buy a SII filter from ZWO eventually but at present the RGBLHa imaging process is keeping me more than amused. And my slush fund is still recovering financially from the 1600mm-c buy but it was definitely worth it.

I'm in suburban Sydney and used an oag for the last 6 yrs with out ever an issue you can bin2x on the guider never not had a star I can use in the fov. If you are getting zwo nb filters don't get unmounted what ever you do .
