Ray, Another benefit of my proposed “Run Log Replay”, is that it not only removes dependence on a customer’s claim of what he sort of remembers happened in the dark of night, it also removes the possi

Thanks for your support on this idea, Ray. Actually, since the ASCOM-V2 based Simulator only needs the date/time and the issued mount commands, I think that even an old version log could be fed into i

Hi Ray, For those of us who aren’t very conversant in MEADE script command language, is there a downloadable, “Quick Reference Card” available that lists the CPx command set and its brief options? It

Thanks Rolando, You may be right – the CP4 problem is now permanent, with a solid AMBER LED. – Hope to hear from Howard soon, after a brief rest from his conferences. Sure seemed like a “motor related

Hi, Odd thing which unfortunately, sometimes happens – during a mount “runaway emergency”. As it heads for the pier, in my panic I have been forced to pull out the power cord powering the mount and ev

Steve, A UPS can also have odd quirks. Can you try bypassing the UPS, to see if it is periodically “switching”, or I should say “twitching”, due to some internal diagnostic. How old is the UPS? Its ba

Good report Ron. You have convinced me to try your planetarium and scope setup, even though I am comfortable in my old ways. Joe

Stuart, FYI – the CP4 has “dual pins” in its connector, rather than the old CP3 “split pin” for power – so unlikely power flicker. My less than year old CP4 unexpectedly went permanently “rogue” last

Sorry – Lance, Typo – should have been the other AP group, “AP-GTO”. Even so, generally it seems that “Yahoo Groups” postings are way below the previous pre-Easter normal. Possibly, something is still

USPS and Canada Post must now have put YAHOO Mail to shame – Yahoo, the new “Snail Mail Service” !! I think that is the computer acronym “SMS” ? Tonight I just received FOUR (4) emails on the AP_UG Ya

Hector, The stuff that gets put in our JUNK folder, is already “pre-screened” by our ISP’s word search filters, based on their “stored criteria”, and their software ADDS a flag onto our email if they

Thanks for your further info, Woody. Oddly, I also had a couple of AP group emails that lost their way for 4 days last week, finally returned to me as “undeliverable”. When the Yahoo service was flake

Thanks, for everyone’s patience. Guess that was a false alarm – I just received my post from both AP groups (A-GTO & AP-UG), in mere minutes. Maybe folks all around the world, just aren’t back from th

Hi, Please excuse this Group’s test, but - Except for the AP-UG Group, I haven’t received any other YAHOO Group email downloads since before Easter. For example, I’m not even seeing any email posts fr

Hi Stuart, There may be other more modern offers, but I have been quite pleased with my HAWKING model “HOWABN1” wireless N-Type comms, universal Hi Gain Repeater. It has huge “banana thick” perpendicu

Guys, I can confidently recommend that ... The best “Refractor cover” – I feel – is the “porch swing canopy” weatherized enclosure ... from The Cover Store. https://www.the-cover-store.com/patio-furni

Andrew, Based on what I have been following on your thread – it seems to me that at least ... as a quick, short term compliance fit ... you might ask the SGP developer to add or provide an ASCOM “fron

Good point, Peter. Although I am not worried, as I already purchased a couple of wonderful AP mounts – they are mostly made from “steel and aluminum” stock. The threat of loss of supply from Canada se

One other thing – about TeamViewer “Disconnections”, even on the in-house wireless LAN, using your remote IP as an ID for login. Sometimes you may still get a “TeamViewer Lost Connection” message. Tha

That’s good news. Everybody should also remember that the Display option in TV options bar, offers “optimization” for Quality, or for video refresh speed. If the “client” screen starts stuttering, you
