I have a PT (1 or 2) that I purchased many years ago. It is the the type that can go up and down. Still works but with my permanent observatory, I have not needed to use that feature in many years

I added a third bearing simply by lubricating it slightly, inserting it part way, sliding the shaft into the center, and gently tapping the third bearing into place. All went very smoothly this way

The possibility of screwing up the mount is very real, as my first-hand experienc

Hi Paul, Binding due to misalignment is one of the problems I found as a potential way to screw up my perfectly good G11 mount as I contemplated this modification.? To get that perfect non-binding

Hi Frank, Just as Laurel, I added a third bearing to a G11 more than 20 years ago, when I was planning to put a 10" SCT on it side-by-side with a small refractor. The thinking was to stabilize the

Hi Jonathan, Yeah....PhD2 defaults to multi star guiding...or at least in my version. I attempted calibration last night and made progress (I was fumbling with setting up the calibration run the

I don’t think using multi star guiding would be an issue. The drive is only recording the corrections received from PHD2. How PHD2 calculates those corrections would not impact what the mount

Hi Jonathan This is indeed super helpful. If I get time tonight I will attempt it. I was actually going to use multi star guiding ..I am assuming that is perfectly fine but wanted to confirm since

Hi Avi, it’s been a while since I last used my digital drive so procedures are a bit fuzzy in my memory but, here’s what I’d suggest. The 492 drive has an internal feature to save and use a

Hello All I wanted to refresh this thread instead of starting a new one for a somewhat related question of my own. I am a recent entrant into AP and have a Losmandy GM8 and CG11, both with 492
