I use a simple nylon, adhesive backed strain relief on the back of the 416
... see http://members.aol.com/pleiade0/astro/ under CCD Imaging for a pic.

Good luck,

Thanks Bob, several on the list have suggested that to me and I will do that
tonight and until the bracket is completed but it still allows some strain
to
be applied as the scope is slewed and the cable is bent or pulled. I was
hoping to completely remove it so there wouldn't be days, weeks or hopefully
years of any accumulated stresses to cause damage.

Cliff
I just loop the cable through the hand-bar on the back of the OTA.
