Drawings made at the eyepiece of my first AP scope, a 6” F/12 Superplanetary in 1989-90. Jim Phillips Get Outlook for iOS

Set up my AP 600E last night and had a problem. First of all I did not have a CP2 control box (I have one but not with me). The other thing is that the one non-Y cable going from the mount to the cont

All I can say is that I want one!! Lol That would be an absolutely incredible view. I would love to see that. “Dome land”, the Hortensius, Milichius, Tobias Mayer dome field must be spectacular! Apoll

He gads! What a gorgeous image! Jim P Get Outlook for iOS

Definitely the problem is with the cable. Originally, I was able to use the keypad to move the scope east west, but I could not get the keypad to move the mount north south. So, once it cooled off thi
