hehe, trust you Jase, yeah, the counterweights do poke up somewhat when fully opened, but with the Obs front pointing north, the ME raises the OTA at the corners (where the counterweights are) so that the obsruction is at a minimum, (and they are the furtherest away, at the corners) certainly less than 20deg from the horison. I cant test it with the rig, its just too hard without a suitable pier. Direct north, south, west and east, viewing is almost to the horison.
Im open to critisism though, how close to the horison would you be inclined to image?.
