Thank you, it is exciting to be getting the scope. Mountwise have to see what the AZEQ6 mount does in the meantime. I will look out for something else over time otherwise and see what happens. It may not be perfect but it should do the job. It seems a Temma3 or G11 mount are the two options in the running.
