Dan, Yes, in the same manner as the LPI. One difference is that you can connect to the com port by simply typing the name of the port (ex Com1) or the IP...
OK, you all may have already covered this territory, and I'm exposing my ignorance here, but I've very interested in this little bugger, and will likely put...
Celestron scopes can not use the auto guide features contained in Meade products, at least "right out of the box", it is possible that you could make some sort...
... Hi: MAYBE. If the drivers for this camera can be used with Guidedog or K3 or Astrovideo, yes, you can guide with it. This did not turn out to be possible...
I own a ETX-125. Will the "Autoguide" function work with this set-up? Since the ETX-125 has a focal length of 1900mm will I need to purchase a Focal Reducer? ...

Mike, Yes, the autoguide will work with the 125 or any other 497 or A/S II scope. As for a focal reducer, I believe there are some that cn screw onto the back...
If I buy a focal reducer from Meade, what exactly should I buy that it fits directly? The focal reducer I have seen, has a T ring. Will that fit? Thomas ... If...

Don, I agree 100% if you just add the words "free market" to the word "capitalism". Won't go into details here, since this is OT. Happy Imaging! Tim ...
