Yes, I know how to balance a scope on GEM.
Glad you were happy with your EQ6 and Celestron.
The Celestron had a dovetail mount attached to it I presume................and the focussing was not done by a rack and pinion or crayford type?
My 8 inch has very solid tube rings bolted to a vixen style dovetail to suit the EQ6 head and has a standard rack focusser.
Please note everyone............I am NOT imaging, ..........just viewing.
