Hi Brian, Hi Greg
Thanks for the input.
Skywatcher EQ6 mount:
It is rated for a 20kg payload, not including counterweights.
I have mounted a 21kg payload and it worked OK, sort of, up to a point.
Well come to think of it, I had a nightmare of a time.
But there where many other issues other than weight.
However, having said that, experience from Brian carrys a lot of weight :-)
I will factor in purchasing an EQ8 in the next phase if things don't work.
Takahashi TOA-150:
I have to say, it sort of scares me a bit.
As good as they are, it's like buying a $100k car (I drive an old VW combi).
But never say never...
Once again, thanks IIS.
