Nice setup there Doppler! I was scanning through the forum and found your profile earlier yesterday and was going to PM you for a pic of your rig as I seen in other posts that you use a Newt for imaging. I would like to go this way for AP work first as I have read in my research here that there are other issues or (not as easy) to image with newts compared to refractor OTA but price is a big factor for me and I would love big DIA for my dollar which is why I am heading in this direction.
