I know, if it wasn't for the fact that it was worth $500 to Richard
Shell (as a prototype tester) I would have done to my ST-4 what Rich M.
did to his 201. Trivial matters aside, I'm going to be looking on
astromart for mounts and whatever pops up at the right time will
probably be what I get. Most likely that will be a Losmandy as they are
more commonly used. Provided of course that my guider can work with
them. I have an e-mail to Scott already sent.

about my problems to you guys. :-) 
For future reference, where can these pages be found?
