Not sure about that mount in particular, but it's definitely been done.  It's going to be moving in spurts, so not good for visual tracking, but an antenna won't care.  The Elk antenna (I have one) doesn't have a particularly sharp beam pattern, so you really don't need any sort of precision.

There's a plug-in for Hamlib, I think, to interface to many of the telescope mounts.  If you can get the software to talk, might as well give it a try.

Hi everyone,

I have an IC-705 and I would like to know if you have used an astrophotography mount like the Sky-watcher Az-gti goto mount to track LEO satellites. Do you think it's quick enough to keep the satellite in the frame? I have a light UV ELK antenna.

Thanks,
