Thanks for the advice and opinions.
It looks like I'm gonna have to do some more research.
Lucky I'm not in a major hurry.
It seems that everyone is suggesting an equatorial mount...
I've heard (and read) that even the most experienced people still can't get them set up right, or they take a lot of patience and time to set up.
That's what I like about the nexstar series, it takes 5mins to setup.
I hate it when I look outside and see no clouds, so I set my gear up and what not. Then by the time I'm ready to start, all the clouds roll on in.
I would hate to take an hour or more to set up everything only for the clouds to come in.
I know, I know, it's part of the hobby and all.
I've never really looked at mounts before,
so what are the differences? (EQ2, EQ5, EQ6, ect.)
Cheers
