The very popular NEQ6 pro Synscan

[DAVE AMENDALL]

Hi all, I recently upgraded my EQ5 mount to the NEQ6 pro to support my two scopes Celestron C8 interchanging with Bresser Messier 152s. I have included some pics as usually the 152s is illustrated on an EQ5 or eqivilent which I feel is pushing it somewhat. The pics give some idea of the size ratio between the frac and the  NEQ6 which I hope is of interest. The overall result is a much sturdier set up and I can understand why these mounts are so popular......Dave

Yes they are a lot sturdier until you have to lug them down the bottom of the garden each time which I see you don't ?

May be just as well John, I don't think I would be strong enough to lug it down the garden nowadays. Hopefully, my lugging days are over. However, I plan to upgrade the pier sometime before the winter,so there will be some lifting and puffing then.........Dave

Lovely set up. Hope you get some clear skies to make the most of it.

Thanks for the  kind comments. I squirreled the wallpaper on Ebay.I think it's really intended for junior's bedroom lo   Dave
