For astrophotography with an untracked dob, you don't need to worry about the long-exposure mod, as you won't be doing long exposures.

You'll be limited to short exposures for the moon and planets.

But Bob is right, even a new SPC900nc plus adapter, plus IR filter is probably reaching around the $200 mark. A new DBK which comes with the filter and adapter is under $400 last time I looked.
