Gday Mark,
I'm new to this particular forum so I haven't checked out all your posts. I therefore may be repeating someone else's comments. Seems to me you are trying for portable + aperture and the only answer I know is one of the smaller Maks
Of course this could fall into a budget consideration, but then an 80mm refractor worth having isn't cheap.
Agreed a Newt is your cheapest option, but I doubt you'll find smaller than 150mm as a new OTA.
The smaller SW Maks (90, 102, and 127) can be had as OTA's, but you would have to hunt around a bit as some suppliers carry one and not another (as OTA only)
I am assuming that you already have a mount? Otherwise go for one of the Mak packages.
Apologies if I am repeating previous suggestions.
Vinnie
