I have never used EQMod before, so maybe I haven't set something properly.
I tried driving it through stellarium with no success.
Also with the mount, Anthony and I had come up with another idea of putting a collar above and below the mount to make a maximum and minimum height adjustment. I also thought about putting a bracket with a handle to make it easy to load in and out of the car.
