Discmount DM-6

Includes Discmount head, encoders for both axes, handle and Casady 8" saddle plate. All in excellent condition.

Price: $1270 including registered/insured post (which is about 2/3 of new cost from US including gst).

The mount will go straight onto a Discmounts tripod or it will fit a Losmandy tripod with purchase of the adapter plate from Discmounts. I've used it with a Sky Commander and I'm told it also works with Argo Navis.

The telescope can be mounted on either side of the mount - if using DSC's the Alt encoder sense needs to be reversed if you swap sides. I've got velcro for attaching the sky commander on both faces of the mount since I've used it both ways - velcro can be removed and metal cleaned with alcohol if preferred.
