Need help identifying this "Tak" clone mount, please - Southern Cross Scopes anyone?
Hi all,
I have this eq mount, but it has no identifying markings on it, be it for brand or model. The Bintel dovetail puck I put on the mount, so it has nothing to do with it.
I've looked at many pics of similar mounts, and the best i can do is its head resembles more an EQ6 than an HEQ5 - it certainly is a beefy mount and the same size as an EQ6. But it doesn't have the same electronic connections on the side. The handset controls both axis, but the fastest slewing speed is not very fast.
The mount itself is very sturdy, and didn't skip a beat when I put a C8 on it.
Might anyone be able to shed some light on what this mount might be?
Thanks for looking.
Alex
