... It is certainly feasible. Many others have done exactly that and it's doubtful that you'd be getting anywhere near the capacity of your AP1200. Just don't...
Gavin -- I have a Losmandy dovetail attached to the top of my Parallax rings holding a Meade 16" LX200GPS OTA. On the rail rides a Tak FC-100. The FC-100 is a...
