What do I need to mount a scope to my Astrotrac
I have a very good tripod, the Manfrotto geared head, an Astrotrac, a good ball head, a DSLR and a cheap SkyWatcher SW708 on a cheap alt-az mount (manual)/tripod combo that came with the telescope.
I guess I need to mount the alt-az mount to the astrotrac, but how?
EDIT: I just snapped the 3/8" (I think) bolt that the cheapo Alt-Az head uses to screw onto it's cheapo aluminium tripod, maybe I can kill two birds with one stone here, by buying a new Alt-Az head that will mate properly to the AstroTrac's 3/8" thread AND a 3/8" tripod head thread (which are the same thing).
