Hi Alan

I'm still trying hard with PS and am definitely making some progress.

With regard to the TV85, this should fit inside the "locking" rings of the
Guide Star bracket (see their
web page). I think you can specify the outside diameter of the scope you
need to mount. The whole
bracket then connects to your main OTA.

Does this make sense?
