Nice shot nate, How are you liking the atlas mount? does it have a good PE?

I'm really liking the Altas with EQMOD. I haven't measured PE yet and haven't done any PEC training. Imaging at 400mm is pretty forgiving. I have been getting pretty good results with some tweaking at 1000mm with a Meade SN10 and 55 lbs of CW on the Atlas. It's a pretty decent mount, especially for the money.
