Thanks Ray. I will give that a try

That's funny. No. More than zero?

I think it may be time for me to switch to 1.11. I am usually wary of anything in beta, but I think I will give it a go as we approach the full moon. The SMF has the "killer app" feel to it, so I appl

There is a single power connector and a single USB3 connector for through-the-mount cabling. My PC and power supply plug into the back of the RA axis, then I connect a PowerBox to the power and USB on

USB to RS-232 on a Mach2 (CP5) because I'm a creature of habit. I am in the backyard, but I don't need anything else. I don't trust WiFi in general and I have read that in particular the CP4/CP5 has d

Gotta be honest, headline scared the bejeezus outta me. I've been evacuated too many times.

I used to go there all the time when I was in the south bay. Great viewing especially when the fog rolls in to cover Salinas and Hollister. Clear skies!
