It's my understanding(but happy to be corrected) that any EQ6 that has a DB9 connector for a handcontroller is able to use EQMOD.
The very early EQ6's did not have the DB9 (see picture) and these are the mounts that need a SynScan upgrade to work.
However, the EQ6 SynTrek mount (which is non-GOTO) will work as the mount itself is identical to the SynScan version with the exception of the handcontroller itself. The SynTrek hand controller is basic having only sidereal tracking and NSEW slewing buttons.
Obviously as there is no SynScan handcontroller this mount can't use PC-Direct mode, but will work with EQMOD and an EQDIRECT cable.
