HI all,

My wife has said I can purhase a new telescope after I buy a few things for the house (patio, lounge, cement) I have decided to invest in a Celestron C9.25-CF XLT and an EQ6 with skyscan. By the time I get it there will be an updated handpad to the synscan which hopefully will have a flash upgradable memory. Anyway what I need to know from those with Celestron OTA's is will the C9.25 go straight onto the EQ6 head without modification?

I also plan to get an Orion/Skywatcher/....... ED80 guidescope for it aswell, what would I need and how would I go about putting one onto a celestron OTA?

Help appreciated.

I am gathering prices to see how much I need now also.
