Hi Matt,
I was contemplating this.. but it is too heavy for EQ6 (actually there are two counterweights required - one to balance the dish + feeder on DEC axle, and then another one to balance the whole thing around RA axle .. 60-100kg or more it total.).
At the end, I will be using alt-azimuthal mount, with Bartels or SoundStepper software to control it.
