Skyscout mounted on Lightbridge

I finally found a sturdy method of mounting the Skyscout on my LB16.
I tried before but it was too close to the steel parts and showed interference with the sensors.

This methode now works fine but I had to drill holes in the struts which I wanted to avoid.

The first test shows that I can line-up object to about 3deg., good enough to bring it in the 6x30 finder.

With this arangement I can correct for magnetig deviation, I only use the Skyscout viewer to check the alignment Led's then I swtch to the Finderscope.
