Frank,
If you are not a twisted puppy, don't expect to succeed and/or enjoy this hobby.
Who in their right mind would be alone atop some isolated mountain peak at 3 o'clock in the morning in the middle of winter freezing his butt off just to observe (or image) some obscure object? Who would donate his blood to mosquitoes so as to get a glimpse of some far away nebula? Who would plan his life around the new moon and/or full moon? Who would purchase a property just because it is somewhat isolated and remote with few neighbours?
Similarly, who would call up a LIDL manager to inquire about the slightest detail in advance of some offer a week away.
I can go on and on but I trust you get the "drift'. :lol:

remember this mount does NOT have an autoguider port. I still think that the SkyWatcher HEQ5 is a better mount and will most probably last longer than the LXD75. ie you wont be wanting to upgrade in a few months. I would suggest keep the hands in the pocket and get a mount thats worth it. I think Wally Mee is getting some in.
