Thanks Jerome, I was just at OPTCORP on Sunday, my first time in their shop so I got to see your set up because they had the same on display, very nice man. I also have a ATRC6 which I mount on top of the C8 sometimes, funny for me I have all the equipment but not the imaging, I have been taking my time deciding on the right stuff. Where are you from in Canada, I grew-up or at least tried to in Brampton, Ont. I was born in England and at age 3 my family moved to the Toronto area. I later moved to Ottawa then Germany and have been here in Arizona since 1995, no offense to anyone, I grew up Canadian the greatest country in the world and at the same time what we do for fun, there are no borders. Clear skies Man

Thanks Jeffrey, I call my rig "MTM" My Time Machine, as for the observatory, Arizona is a great place for clear skies but as of lately we have had more cloudy days and nights this winter than I have ever seen in my 15 years of being here, BTW my dear wife Lorraine is the gardener, I try not to look at them because just a look from me kills the flowers, I once killed a plastic plant from over watering
