TOA-150B

Description

Here is the current configuration. TOA-150B, Losmandy G11T mount, Gemini 2. Parallax 36" x 10" portable pier. No hand controller.

The NUC PC and FeatherTouch Autofocuser are now on the OTA instead of on a table. I connect to the NUC via Windows RDP to any of my PCs, tablets, or Android phones. Can connect even when I am out of the state.

Astrodon MMOAG-1, ZWO EFW -7x36mm, Astrodon 5nm NB and Color filter sets, TAK-reducer, ZWO ASI174mm guide camera, ASI1600mm pro imaging camera. There's only one thing to hook up when rolled out, the power cord....

Next, a remote observatory. The light pollution at my current location is getting much worse every year.

Description: Upgraded to a Parallax 36" portable pier. I was able to remove the OTA side counterweight and gain ~5 degrees past vertical. Then I moved the other counterweights higher to reduce inertia.
