Hi Phil,

The answer to this is 'yes!'
If you buy a generic Dob such as the ones out of Sirius Optics (they are all made either by Synta or Guang Sheng), then installing the encoders is probably a 30 minute exercise and no special skills or tools are required.
Email me if you would like more details.
Best Regards
