Walter Petrick's
Autostar retrofitted EQ-4 mount

Here is Walter's Autostar retrofitted EQ-4 mount using brackets designed
and fabricated by Stephan Koenigsheim. Stephan's machine shop is
obviously superior to mine! Walter is quite excited about his new GOTO
mount and hopes that between himself, Steve and myself, we are able to
bring economical and fun GOTO capabilities to many more users of the
venerable Vixen GP, GP-DX, GP-E, SP, SP-DX, Synta EQ-4, EQ-5,
Celestron CG-5, Orion Skyview Deluxe and more. We are not interested
in profiting from this effort. We merely wish to share our experiences
and fun.
