Steve B, I see you are using the Bintel Alt/Az tripod/mount.

I have a porta mount and totally agree with what Steve says. FWIW a mate of mine is using the bintel mount with a Tak FS102 and found it to be too wobbly. The culprit was the lengthy arm that the OTA ounts on (the vixen one is shorter and more rigid). He replaced the cast aluminium part with steel and reports a huge improvement. I suspect that the bintel mount would be OK with an ED80 though.
