EQMOD is one thing that makes me keep looking at Skywatcher and related mounts. I am using an Orion version AZEQ6 at the moment and it works for AP but has some foibles. Like no proper facility to lock the altitude adjustment (I am thinking about replacing the knurled knobs for the purpose with stainless steel nuts so I can tighten them enough with a spanner to lock it properly) and they are harder to balance than an EQ6, which instead has a horrible altitude adjustment setup.


The CQ350 might be a good option for me in the future if they turn out not to have any glaring defects. Having a USB3 hub built in to them and some power distribution looks a godsend for cable management.
