Ken, You might want to try looking at the males and female threads using a magnifying lens, and use a flashlight to look inside. See if there are any burrs getting in the way. Sounds like it was a

Hi Frank, Congrats on your mount purchase! You'll find lots of info searching through this forum and also on the Losmandy YouTube channel. Good luck with your setup! John

Hello, I have just completed the sign up for the group. I am now sending my “sign-up” message. I have joined the Losmandy user group, because I am eagerly awaiting the delivery of a new GM8,

IF it worked originally the first two months, there's nothing wrong with the thread size.

Michael, See the nice notes and photos on Mark Crossley's website: www.wilmslowastro.com Look for his section on tips and tricks. He also lists the standard parts for the G11. And his recommended

Kenneth, If truly only 2 months old, contact the factory and ask for a replacement counterweight rod with threads slightly reduced in OD. Stop putting time into this...it was not made right. The

Thanks for all the thoughtful replies. I did clean out the female threads with some nitro-solvent (gun bore cleaner), then lubed with a light coating of gun oil. No change as yet. I see from the

Paul, I'm somewhat mystified why you set your TVC value to zero when imaging. And what do you mean calibration in both directions? The purposed of TVC as I understand things is to nullify Dec

Ken, Polishing the male thread is a common trick used in auto garages where the bolt won't quite fit into the hole anymore. Often it the very tip where the damage is and if you can buff that out you
