Thx!

That was exactly how I read it the first time…

Kenneth One advantage to using PHD2 proper versus the PHD version built into the ASIAIR is that you can post your Guide and Debug logs on the PHD2

Hi, would that setup still be OK if you built and loaded a tracking model from APPM in place of guiding?

WoW, you have a generous neighbor to give you a mount for free. Rolando

1100GTO. I got it free with the help of my neighbor, but just wanted to post that I used some lube on the insert to hopefully keep it from happening again. Yes, I do have the insert.

What!!!, you don't have an infinite number of telescopes, what kind of world is this where you can't have an infinite number of telescopes ??? :D Great setup, we will be watching for the results.

Interestingly the belt seems to be the astronomical mount equivalent as the drive belt on…Harley Davidsons. Probably no relation. The drive belts on the motorcycles have a service life of 60-100K

I am going off topic a little bit here, but many of us who started driving in the 1970's will remember the introduction of these toothed rubber timing belts in automobile engines. Prior to this the

Thanks for showing us this imaging setup Roland, and yes, please share your results including your guiding graphs. Mike

Hi Andrew I will try to throw my two cents worth into this discussion, and hopefully will not confuse you even more. First, If the filters are said to add 1mm of backfocus, I would interpret this to

What mount, and do you have the steel insert? Putting some ice on the cwt shaft will cause it to shrink slightly and it might come free that way. Rolando

Hello AstroNuts, We get this question many times, "will the Mach2 support my scope, camera etc." I can't really answer specific setups since I don't have infinite variety of scopes at my disposal.

Another great video Tony. Like you, I have always been impressed to see how A-P machines so many of their parts from solid aluminum bar stock. That cogged belt is also impressive. The part number

I have to chime in here for posterity. I just got my mount a few months ago with the new CW shaft and the Delrin spacer installed and just had my manhood called into question trying to remove the

Ken - One thing I discovered about the ASIAIR version of PhD guiding is that you have to set the guiding rate to 1X in TWO places - on the AP hand controller keypad (or on AP mount software if using

Hmm I wonder if there is something wrong with my setup. I use a 250 mm fl guide scope with an ASI 1290 cam as guidecam

Hi Kenneth I've had very unpredictable guiding performance with AsiAir Pro until the latest version with multi star guiding. I haven't had too many chances to test it out but the guiding was very

I have a strange problem. I am using a c925 on a AP 1600 . I can run it without guiding for about 30 s with fairly round stars. The moment i try to guide with the phd on the asiair pro, it is all
