Bill,
Just had a look at the Van Slyke website- it certainly does not look good for them.
Colin,
Yes, I have been considering lengthening the struts as you suggested. I want to eventually also install a 2x barlow into the system and must admit I'm unsure as to what extent camera & barlow & 2" to 1.1/2" reducer will affect the final image, hanging off the side of the OTA as it is. Perhaps an aftermarket focuser in place of the Meade unit would be sufficient?
Graeme.
