Hi Peter,

I do use eqmod with the synscan goto upgrade kit which is an easy fit to the GDD2. You don't use the large plastic cover that holds some of the wiring, but other than that it is a straight fit.

You do need to adjust the fit of the Synta gears as they are not round!! in one position my pe was terrible, By just rotating the gear 90 degrees and re fitting it to the worm it dropped to th 15 arc sec figure. This was good enough and guided well enough that I left well enough alone. Havent bothered to readjust for over 2 years.

cheers
Gary
