Very nice JT. A friend of mine has one. He gets 3.5" PE without
PEC.
He sent me the tracking results below with sub arc sec guiding on a night of bad seeing. 0.42 arc sec RMS 2 arc sec p-p.

HOUSTON, WE HAVE A PROBLEM!!
The box was unpacked, the mount is an Immaculate work of art. There's only one problem, I did not do the correct research before hitting the buy button. I wanted the CEM70AG which has the USB 3 ports. What I purchased is the earlier version CEM70 which only has the USB 2.0 ports, it's going back tomorrow.
The ramifications are that I am now at the back of the queue for wanting this model of the mount.
