What scope options are you considering?? Exciting stuff.

That was actually the logic i was following. I never really considered the titan in my research before the option came up, then after thinking about it i thought the EQ8 is more feature rich (although not as well constructed) so instead of that i spent 3 times as much and got the paramount ... go figure. but i have always wanted the paramount so why not.
the thoughts about what to go on top are down to
1) cdk 12.5 planewave
2) cdk 14 planewave
i have also looked into the AG optical and officina stellare ranges but for some reason i have a love for the planewave gear.
i will also be piggy backing a 80mm APO for wide field imaging
