Hi all

My 13 year old Meade fork mount appears to be dying a magnificently slow death. Thinks it is Hubble one moment and refuses to play the next. And the gps is inconsistent and probably also on the way out.

Therefore I’m thinking of getting a more modern, versatile and portable mount for the OTA, my Solarmax and my little refractor.

I’ve trolled YouTube looking for examples of removing the OTA but can only find examples of deforking the classic design which is a bit different to the more current design, to the best of my limited knowledge.

If anyone could point me in the direction of an example of how to get the tube off the mount, it would be greatly appreciated.

Cheers

Mark.
