Hi folks, I read myself many times and I don't want to be too radical about Telescope | Options | Initialize in TheSky but for the moment, because of the SET GMT bug, I think than people should forget

Roland, It's very appreciated to take our request in consideration. In my case, I will never use the setting circles but clutches will always be a must for a new GOTO mount user. Go forward with your
