Already, in the gathering dusk, a few of the stars are turning on their lights.

Vega, the brightest one, is now dropping towards the west.  Can it be half

a year since I watched her April rising in the east?  Low in the southwest

Antares blinks a sad farwell to fall...

OK so my happiness lasted for a week and now the issue is back. Or at least I assume (hope?) that this is related to the problem. 

The mount refused to connect today through the SGP and when I disconnected and connected the Ra cable the Ra motor started to make a grinding sound trying to rotate the axes without luck. I then tried the Dec cable and both ends of the new Y cable to Ra motor with the same grinding result. As it was getting dark I didn’t open the gearbox cover anymore tonight.

Let me know if the attached video doesn’t upload and I can drop it to google drive.


Thanks,

Mikko
