Hi guys,
I have heard alot about dob driver's lately...can someone tell me wht they are exactly and how expensive are they...Im getting a 12" soon and wonder how i'd go about getting a trackable mount for it...but don't really want to spend the big bucks on an eq6...
cheers

There is some good info (and a familiar face) in this thread over at cloudy nights: http://www.cloudynights.com/ubbthreads/showflat.php/Cat/1,2,3,4,5,8,9,10/Number/256481/Main/253485

I have no experience with the Dob Driver, however if your budget can stretch to a Junior ServoCAT and ArgoNavis (al lot dearer than the Dob driver) I can highly recommend that.

There are also the new johnsonian tracking platforms for dobs now available at Bintel but i dont know how good they are.
I myself am waiting for a review to see what there like, though they are expensive i think $1150
