LOL. indeed it's not exactly difficult to get perfect stars at 500mm or so.

BTW a pox on your dark skies...they shouldn't be allowed...

But assuming dark skies are actually useful, I now have a new "portable" mount!

It arrived last week from some small, probably, tin-pot company in Illinois, USA. (see attached)...who did offer some nice steak knives with the deal.

Apparently with perfect tracking due fancy optical encoders...(yeah, sure )

It might entice me to go west in search of similar poxy skies
