Mechanical Mount

    Off-the-shelf pedestal
    Azimuth/Elevation mount
    Type of motors

The reviewers agreed that an AZ/EL pedestal already produced and tested is the best approach and recommended that a pointing and tracking budget be specified, identifying practical tradeoffs. No specific recommendations beyond using the existing 10m drive motors other than to evaluate anti-backlash preload motors to reduce the allowable $0.05^{\circ}$ backlash.
