Re: Duplex 6 wire for ST-8 & CG-11 Hand Controller
If the ST8 is like the ST4 you could do what I do. I use a simple
6 wire telephone "Y" splitter. Bought it at Radio Shack. I think
Scott sells them too.

Re: Losmandy DSC strange results
Thanks, Bruce. I'll try changing the encoder resolution to 4096 and give it
another shot. Let's hope for less humidity sometime soon!

Seems you had the same seeing in Chapel Hill as I did in Rocky

I finally got a clear night last night to take the G-11 I'm considering

Your numbers just don't sound right. I'm no expert, but it seems

Re: Encoder resolution
Greg,
Mark specifically said he had 2160 encoders. The Losmandy supplied encoders are normally 2048 which
when doubled by the gear ratio will require a 4096 setting. Mark is using used encoders and

Just wanted to say thanks to all of you for your input regarding my

Re: Encoder resolution
Mark,
If you are using the Losmandy gear set you need to set the encoder resolution at 4320 because
Losmandy uses a 2:1 gear ratio. Try that number and see what happens.
