Hi Dean,

Thanks for responding to my post. Your experience with play in the AZ worm in the AZ/EQ 5 seems consistent with what I have read about this mount. The support you received from Tasco sounds encouraging. I would be interested to find out how your mount goes after its return.

My reading re this mount has been that the moment arm of a longish refractor may cause vibration problems in the AZ mode - that's why I am looking for someone local (within say 1 hour of the ACT) to test it out. Some people love this mount - others - not so much.

It was interesting that the iOptron dealer suggested that the AZ/EQ 5 was the better mount for you. Can you tell me the dealer's name (via PM if you like)?
