Why I ordered a SkyShedPod
The pictures say it all! They also show the EQ6 with the Mel Bartels system I bought some time ago from an IIS member. What is really nice it has belt driven motors so there are no 'microjumps' due to gears. This is only annoying at long focal lengths ie at 1800mm with my TAL200K. It runs beautifully and autoguides like a dream.
I am still getting my head around the control program. I used Unix for years so DOS has no fears, only a learning curve for the intricacies of the controlling program.
