Yes Allan a heavier duty mount is on the cards. It should probably be first on the list, but I can always downsize the scope to a refractor if it comes to that.

Your pics are great dunk. Was thinking of the 178 but the chip is just to small for me.

At present I am favouring a mono. I'm not fully setup for a mono, but as mentioned I do have a bunch of smaller scopes I can practice on until I learn the ropes. There are too many advantages to pass up. And I can shoot Ha in moonlight. (it's usually only clear here when the noon is out) For comets I'll probably continue to use the DSLR.
