Recommendations for an EQ mount for OOUK CT8

[robbymain]

Hi All,

Having discounted an AZ100 as a possible option for my OOUK CT8 reflector due to the OTA blocking the Azimuth control, what equatorial mounts can you suggest for nice solid visual use? My trusty GP-E isn't up to the job. I have a Wanted ad up for a GP-DX but am struggling to find sensible 'modern' alternatives. I really wanted an SX2 but is discontinued and rare as hen's teeth on the used market (ebay has one from an astro dealer in Japan at £1800 plus delivery, import taxes and the rest...)

Not really interested in a Skywatcher mount - and not sure about iOptron. 

Load is about 11kg all up.

Thanks friends,

Rob

I have ordered one of these and plan to use it on my Losmandy G11. There is a G11 up for sale on astro buy and sell for a reasonable price (although it is Gemini 1 rather than Gemini 2). That mount would easily cope with it.
