use and why?
I use EQ fork mounts, because that's what I was already used to when I
bought the scopes. But I do have a NextStar 5 (motorized alt-az with a
wedge for possible EQ use), and don't enjoy the requirement of having
power to use it.
I wish I had bought the complete C104 with alt-az mount so I could
also use it easily for terrestrial viewing. I bought the OTA only, and
use a mount I built for it to ride on the C14. It's very clumsy
indeed, effectively stopping me from using the C104 tube at all.
