The SkyX Star Synchronization
Dean, the check box is in the AP driver not TSX. You tell it to treat SYNC as RCAL. Then you're good to go. Stuart Heggie http://www.stuartheggie.com/

Create a PEM curve with a camera?
Hey David, I'm sure you're right to be wondering about the guide scope approach. Have you used this guide scope / main scope together before and confirmed there is no flexure? If you haven't I'd be wo

Dick, get ready for the deluge of advice! LOL! This is THE list for getting help with premium gear. I'm pretty certain that an AP1100GTO would be more than adequate for the 12" LX200 OTA. You can get
