Thanks for the information Rick. Christian Rick a crit :

Hi, Sorry I haven't looked on Forum in a while. Yes it will accomodate more than 5 degrees. If you are always in the same location, you may want to consider putting in a setup stone (basically a

Hi, I'm a new owner of a gently used AP-900 GTO-CP2. I'm in the process of adapting the pier in my observatory to accomodate the AP-900. I'd like to raise it up some and am wondering if someone can

Hi, I am getting a Mewlon 250S (with mounting rings) and will mount it on my AP Mach1. I currently use the DOVELM16S mounting plate and LMDM10 (used with Meade 10" tube): do I have all I will need

Or you could get a high res monitor with built in USM port ;-) My monitor will recharge USB devices when the computer's off

Hi Bill, Thanks for confirming that the netbook can work well with a full res external monitor. As for using an external DVD as a backup media, with only 4.2 GB per platter, it would be better

Hi Neil, We got the external DVD drive because we weren't sure that all software could be loaded using a Memory Stick. Perhaps there is some software that requires the CD media for authentication,

Fernando, Be wary when you select your enotebook - choose the one with the "faster" processor chip, and upgrade the standard memory to 2 Gbytes. You will also need to buy an external USB DVD to

Fernando, A friend of mine has switched over to using a netbook to run his imaging sessions with his AP1200 and quite likes it. He is running the Bisque suite of software to control

Hello, I have a question for this group. I am wondering if anyone here is using a netbook for autoguider control when connected to AP 1200 GTO. Any issues or problems take place? Best

Dear group, This evening I decided to go after the transit involving CoRoT-1b in Monoceros. Although the transit depth itself is quite doable at around 25 mmag (ie. 0.025 mag), the host star is only
