I just sent you the screen shots via email.
Once I slew more than 10 degrees (in either direction), stop the slew, the DEC reads 00 00 00. While slewing and holding down the left

Re: Initial GoTo In APCC Pro Cause Nose or Tail Dive
Aloha Ray,
ok, I'll get some screen shots sent over to you. I'll just put them all in a MS Word doc.

How about trying this again and taking a screenshot of what

Re: Interesting Mach2 Behavior on Cloudy Nights
Roland sets up something similar during the indoor final testing phase for each Mach2GTO. It is a bit of a chore, but has deepened his understanding of this mount.

Re: Triple Piggy Back Works!
I am very careful about checking balance and recheck it when I change cameras. I think it is right on. I also remove the somewhat heavy scope front cover from the Planewave even if it is not the scope
