Christophe, I think version 2.01 and upward should be fine. I've successfully been using both 2.02 and 2.06 myself! I don't know if there is any connection...
Hello ttelmah!! The native SkySensor 2000-PC protocol is for uploading orbital elements for asteroids, comets and satellites _only_!!! You will have to use...

Doug & Peter, How's the SkyCommander work going? I've been watching this thread over the last couple of weeks as I'm about to purchase a scope that will...
