I was able to capture a pretty nice image of MARS this morning with the Meade RCX scope; the amount of topographical detail is extraordinary. The region...
In June 2005 I bought the Meade LX200 8" GPS SMT UHTC. I bought it "as new", but it has been tested, supposedly. I am experiencing problems with the Goto...

I have ETX125 older model(about 2 years old) with Autostar. When I setup Autostar for date, time prior to the Alignment, it does not give me location menu to ...
Updating the Autostar firmware is a good idea. You will need the computer interface cable set #505 to connect to a PC. The resetting of all data can be done...
After a RESET, the Autostar asks about location. Once one is selected, it remembers it for the next session. If you wish to change it, go into the SETUP menu...

LXUSER said "Thanks, but I have tried that too!" Yes but did you try that after hitting 'mode' because hitting mode is like "Escape". So start over and pick...
I'll bet the power switch isn't the only thing being corroded in your scope. Maybe it is time to re-evaluate your setup to make sure that you are KEEPING DEW...
O.K. I opted out on that. But I heard that computers listen in on all phone calls for key words that I won't mention here, but by now they know how I feel...

You are so right, I actually discovered this myself yesterday: Need to press Enter before Goto, not just Goto... Then it works like a dream, what a machinery....
Hey Eirik, One last thing (or two). You can sync on a star by pressing and holding enter for 3 seconds. BUT many Autostar ll have a difficult time with getting...
You should contact Meade customer service for support on this. It may be different than the secondary's rotation position. Something may be pinched or...
Hi All! Need some help with my LX200GPS which for the past 3 days has been doing runaways at startup in both axis. Everything was fine for the past 6 months...
If you were collimating shortly after setting up, it's probably just heat rising from the baffle tube. If you're on a wedge, it's easy to tell because the...
