Well I think it goes with our jobs, we waffle too much...

Chris, I am on the look out for 2nd hand equipment suitable for doing Deep sky Imaging as apparently the mount is not good enough on my ETX which I don't want to take apart.

I've got myself a guide scope, but otherwise I don't have a clue what I need and is suitable.  So if what you're selling might be a suitable for this, then depending on the price I might be interested.  It looks at though this is the scope only and will need a mount.  Maybe we should discuss this through a PM. 

This applies to any-one else who might be upgrading and wants to sell me their old equipment if it is suitable for deep sky imaging - again - depending on the price.  Always was a bit of a Scrouge.

Carole for Deep Sky Imaging the mount is the number one top priority. It is essential you get a mount that is reasonably well engineered, able to cope with the weight of your kit with guide inputs and low PE.
