Schmidt Cassegrain. It’s old school, circa 2000. Had to make changes to the privative focus system, issues with mirror shift etc...Homemade permanent concrete pier with the scope being fork mounted to an equatorial platform bolted to the top of the pier. The pier is isolated from the floor...to reduce vibrations etc. Pier and base are sunken and weigh about 1500lbs. I got half the steel from a scrap yard. The cameras, mount and scope can be controlled remotely, which is nice, stay out of the cold weather when imaging etc.
That sounds like a nice setup. I just ordered the Askar 103 f7 700mm. I run an HEQ5 Pro mount. Man I love astrophotography! So many wonders above our heads.
