Thanks everyone for your input.

I think I might try for the best of both worlds. Why settle on just a finder, when perhaps I can find something that will serve as both a finer, preferably RACI, and double as a guide scope down the track if the right angle recticle can be unscrewed.

I may be able to use my GSTAR-EX3 as a guide camera in that case. The Telrad seems to be the right option, simply for that initial lineup.

Someone suggested, the Starsense never needs calibration again, but with my bumping, and dragging the mount around, it invariable does need realignment to some degree. Have had some problems with it lately, keeps telling me I am +/- 10 degrees out so fails calibration. Might do a factory reboot when I get time. I've been using Alpha Centauri for calibration, and knowing my stupidly, I am probably lining up on Hadar

Cheers,

Lance
