It will be put on the pier in my observatory, so i don't need a tripod. Andrews 10% off sale ends this afternoon, and i can get a EQ8 head from them today for about $4320. Then i could sell the NEQ6 to reduce the change over cost, to less than $3k.
This is just one option i am looking at, others include reducing scope weight and retaining the NEQ6 (which already has a belt mod).
