Thanks for the replies Peter and ... er ... Peter!! I was pretty blown away with the view through Glen's GSO 16", so not much convincing needed. I haven't heard about the JMI Train and Track - some sort of motor drive or go-to? I'm not really looking for motor drives or photography setups. I'm not sure if anyone sells Train and Track here. I already have the Argo on the 12" (great gear) and if I went for the 16" would fit it to that. Perhaps a bit of strengthening and bracing around the base might stiffen the structure up if needed. Unfortunately I won't be at Astrofest. Any thoughts on transport problems of a scope that size - are they too much of a pain to move? Paul.
