Hi JA

I've tried it a few times at different "tightness" settings on the RA.
The backlash doesn't go away, and the stiffness in RA goes from "locked" (when tightened fully as expected) to "put some effort into it" (when the RA lock is loosened completely).

Think I've got a dud. Will be going back to Bintel at lunch time and see what happens.

Unfortunately it looks as if this is going to be similar to the AZ-GTI in that tuning out backlash requires almost dismantling the mount. It's not easy to do like on the EQ6-R.
