Hi antenna guy . That twilight mount you have ,is
It fairly strong as far as weight capacity goes ? I am buying a 102refractor and was wondering if it could take the heat.

It works well enough with my 6" SCT. I understand that people use them with various refractors but I can't really speak to that. You might want to take a look at the "Mounts" sub forum. (Just go to TSS Board Index and find your way from there...)

Thanks antenna guy . The scope I am looking at weighs 12 plus pounds . So I need something like 20 lbs capacity.
