Dew strap position on refractors

Similar question has been posted on CN recently. I intend to buy new controller and dew strap for my 106 Sharpstar. When I had my AP 130 the position to place the dew strap was easy - around the cell on the main tube. With the Sharpstar the cell is covered by the sliding dew cap, being half way along it. Most posters on CN are stating the strap should be aft of the cell, but on the main tube? - would be a long way from the objective on the 106. I intending to place it on the dew cap, and where I place it, whether on main tube or dew cap, will determine what size strap I buy.
What thoughts?
