Is it an Go To EQ6 or non Go To, not sure if an Argo Navis set up would work with EQ mounts, (would have to be polar aligned first), as it is a Push To digital readout of RA & Dec. How have you attached the Encoders to the EQ mount.
Gary will hopefully read this and enlighten us of the suitability and if it can be done.
It is a GOTO EQ6.

It has the Eyepiece of the Polar scope there, but not sure about the other end of a polar scope. Where I used it last night, should not see the south celestial pole, so used a good Japanese compass, to get south. May have to photograph it next week, but never able to put photos on this forum.
