My wife and 3 kids are grads or almost grads (one to go) at University of Michigan For years UofM alumni would take photos of them wearing school clothing and hats in interesting places and they would

I am a BETA tester for Sky Safari. I recently noted that after a recent update the time is incorrect and an hour off. You can verify if you have this problem by opening the app and looking at the time

I notified Sky Safari folks about the time issue AND the incorrect time (I am a BETA tester for Sky Safari). They confirmed it and issued an update to correct it. So if you use Sky Safari Pro 6 update

George. Thanks!! You are the hero in my book. Also ask about the issue listed in post #7956 above in this topic.

I have a RAPAS on my 1100. I run lots of wires (around 6) through the mount and no issue. There is a plastic segmented "separator" that comes with the mount that allows you to run the cables through a

I am using USB active extenders. I have run 62' with no issues and running to a USB splitter at the mount to run a imaging camera and guider camera. These use a small power supply plugged in similar t
