Great info. A few questions: - You mention that you set the MinMo to 0.8 arc-secs. I believe MinMo in the PHD interface is shown in pixels. So if you set the MinMo to 0.8 it would have been 0.8

It's not just yahoo groups. At work I am forced to use Yahoo servers for our business email. I can't tell you the number of times I have been frustrated with the experience. joel

While I am not a fan of Yahoo Groups, I have had no issues recently. Unless there are many people seeing a slowdown, it is not necessarily all Yahoo. Bryan

Peter, I wonder if Yahoo had a “server shutdown” for somereason, perhaps to service its email server or flush out a virus, something nobusiness would want to advertise. I noticed that there

While the groups.io interface is better, it still relies on email groups which truly are a thing of the past. It would be best to move on. The best scenario at this point would be to move to

I'm in - yahoo groups are horribly archaic. Attaching a file is a pain in the ass.

Dale, My only suggestion is to use “stranded core” shielded,and twisted pair, cable. Solid core wire, unless used for internet cabling inwalls, can break from flexure. Probably worth

Dave, RE: making your own USB/serial cable - I tried to do this several time. I bought what I was sure were the correct USB boards and got the pinouts from Optec to make my own cables. I tried 3

Yves, No he needs a straight through cable with female on one end and male on the other. CAUTION…there are many USB/serial adapters out there that are cheap copies using the Prolific

Be sure that it does NOT use a Prolific chip! Regards, George George Whitney Astro-Physics, Inc. Phone: 815-282-1513 Email: george@...

Dave, I believe Optec can customize the cable length you desire. Contact them. Peter ---In ap-gto@..., <dsidote@...> wrote : Thanks, Peter and Dale. The cable that Optec supplies with the focuslynx is

TEC telescope maker switched from Yahoo Groups to Google Groups about two years ago. Also they were able to preserve old Yahoo messages and transferred to Google Groups. This is TEC's Google Group

The threshold method is another way to avoid chasing the seeing. Let it bobble around in its envelope, but once outside the envelope, then make a correction quickly before it has a chance to go too

You would have to filter about 100,000 posts a day. I have the same problem. Yahoo has been misbehaving for some time now. My posts simply never showed up in the

I agree, Yahoo Groups has become a terrible forum system. Unfortunately they have been around for such a long time that they have a huge collection of older messages that are valuable and that makes

Yahoo has been going downhill for quite some time now. Sometimes my email replies to yahoo groups takes a day or two to arrive. Most of the time if I reply online through the group itself it comes

Thanks, Peter and Dale. The cable that Optec supplies with the focuslynx is way longer than I need. I thought about purchasing another one from Optec and shortening it but they charge $55 for the

That's the way to do it. I would suggest to any enterprising individual to cur their own serial (and ethernet) cables if they desire custom lengths. Pre-assembled DB9 (male or female) to 8P8C (RJ45)
