I can only speak for myself, I emailed Louie, and his back was not very good but he was in the land of the living (that was a month or so ago). He was going to keep the C11 etc that he has but I noticed on Astromart that he is vertially selling the lot, i would say to get something smaller and lighter. As for being on the forum, I cant say but i haven't seen a post for a long time.

on topic, I am only interested in looking at another alternative, to look around while the eq6 and scope/camera setup is taking images, just something to plonk a ed100 or a ed80 into
