Re: Cold Start unresponsive
Well, I'm still weird. I fell asleep in my chair. Out back, trying to figure out what was going wrong, and even the mosquitoes weren't keeping me awake. Which was bad for them. My blood is toxic. They

Re: Progress deep sky imaging with a C14HD f/11 on a G11.
Nicely done. I actually had to get rings for my Edge11 because balancing DEC was impossible with FW, camera, Moonlite, auto focuser, and the reducer; not to mention dangerous. Your 14 incher looks

Re: TCP connection
I don't sync or align from SF, just do goto's. I do a goto then plate solve with ekos. One weird thing I noticed was that I did a goto and it did not go all the way to the target. SF kept the goto

Glad to see you got things working, Michael. I hope you anchor it from the wind, or remove the beast when not in use. You remind me of a guy I knew in Wyoming. He was talking about how he could haul 2

Re: G11 RA needle bearings
Hi Marc, I am of the opinion that Synthetics these days are very mature and offer great advantages over the older petroleum based greases of the past. One of the biggest being they retain their

Re: G11 RA needle bearings
You are already using the best lube on the market. The bearings are not under much load, it's not a wheel bearing so you don't need to pack them with grease, a light complete coating is more than you
