Maintenance for a 5 year old AP mount
Hi
Before I get fully configured on my new “used” mount. What maintenance should I do? It’s 5 years old housed in a ROR that probably was in year round temperatures extremes seen at 4000 ft

Re: MACH2GTO Price increase
The Mach2 order and notification to place an order buttons are not showing for this item at the A-P website. Is the Mach2 not available to order or to get a notification to order at this time?

Hi Mikey,
It sounds like NINA should have initiated a pier flip, but there may be a good reason it didn't.

Re: Questions about APCC
Hi Geoff,
If you are not using APCC Pro with a pointing model, then you can recalibrate from the keypad, APCC, a planetarium program, and most astronomy imaging software. If you are using APCC Pro

Re: Questions about APCC
Hi Geoff
You and I are essentially at the same point with APCC. I told myself that I was going to force myself to start using it. I read somewhere that commands through the keypad will override APCC

heck, I just attach my keypad and slew all over the place in the daytime. I also simply connect SkyX (in ASCOM mode) and point and click. Works just like the keypad.
