Thanks Jonathon and Malcolm......I've had the scope inside all day.....made sure everything was OK....even with no finder there was no movement on alt. I can get alt movement with a gentle thumb assistance. Without the OTA the alt bracket does rotate. I'm guessing the ribbed wheels you describe are inside the black covers on the base and left side panels of the mount....I can't see others outside the enclosed system. I'll take a look inside this afternoon. The retailer has always been terrific...Bintel....ill give them a call tomorrow as they aren't open Sunday and as luck would have it, last night was the first night out. As far as balancing...ill need a house brick if I'm going to use Delos or Powermate or paracorr...have the investigate those magnets. Thanks for the replies gentlemen. I'll let you know how it goes.
