Besides all the extras I would need to make this setup remote capable is way out of my budget at this stage.

I often wondered about remotely operating a Newt?
Apart from the obvious cable tangle problems you'd
also need an electric focuser & a frame rotator to
put the target the way you want in the frame.
Operating PHD guiding would be difficult - you'd need a computer on site
that you could remotely operate.
I am sure there are a dozen more things I haven't thought of.
I will have to check it out one day as the weather in Melbourne
is so bad that my hobby is coming to an end here.
cheers
