Guidescope Mounting
I am struggling with this - how do you mount your guidescope so that it is:
a) Solidly and rigidly fixed to the main OTA.
b) Adjustable in ALT-AZ over a range wide enough to find a guide star.
What fl/appature would you recommend for my setup which is:
Meade LPI as guidecam
guidedog software
and Canon 20d imaging through a VC200L OTA at 1800mm f9 or f6.3 (with a reducer).
All advice warmly recieved - I know I need to get this right (or as right as I can) to get to the next stage in astrophotography.
Please do not tell me to get an ED80 - it is too heavy for my setup - what I am after is a good quality, solid guidescope which will accept the LPI.
