Hi Does anybody in this group know if the mounting brackets from goto4all.de will fit on to an eq3 mount, I have emailed stefan at goto4all and he doesnt know...
I am sure that the Goto4all brackets will NOT work on the EQ-3. However I am sure it is possible to make custom brackets along the same line as the ones...
I just wanted to thank Christopher Erickson, Dick Seymour, Steve Bedair and Clay Sherrod for all the work you did with autostar. I am new to Goto and without...
Make sure to apply the correct patch to the Meade software version you have. I believe that 26Ec needs patch 26c4, not patch 25a4. I have the latest...
Sorry if this has been asked before, (I did some searches and didn't find the answer). What exactly are you patching in these patches. -- jeffrey hundstad...

Several things. Dick details what they are in the README file of his patch kit. The biggest one for us here in RoboScope is the ability to select GEM scopes...
Chris, I made my first firmware upgrade yesterday (getting ready for my GOTO4ALL brackets to arrive). After installing the patched 26dd firmware I tried to...
I don't have an unpatched 26Ed Autostar laying about but I believe that if the Autostar is not patched, you will not see the LXD-55 scope models as options...
Thanks, that clears that point up. As long as new users know they need to select one of the LXD mounts then there should be no problems. Bernard ... have the...
I not sure what I should put in for gear ratios, I created my own brackets using Stefan's brackets as a model. I attached them exactly the same way, but I am...
Assuming a GP-clone mount, the ratio to use for 144:1 worms is: -3.28533 for the Az/RA axis. +3.28533 for the Dec/Alt axis. This is just the opposite of direct...

I live in Perú, let me see if I have some friend who’s traveling to US, if there’s no other possibility I’ll try what you told me. thanks ... From: Don...

The only restriction is a $100 limit, if you go above that, there’s a 40% customs tax, and I can send money without restrictions. ... From: Don Wyman...
Wow. For an unsolicited advertisement (a.k.a. spam), that posting is sure welcome. I don't have any current needs, but that looks really cool. I wonder if...
Well after having my Stephan's Brackets on my GP/DX I have found a couple of things that might need improvement. The first problem I had was my fault. When I...
sorry ralph, i believe that you have one of the first brackets. the current brackets have the larger screw and a gear wheel include. the screw was M3 and is...
Ralph, If you return your bracket kit to me I will replace it with one of the newer sets and I will use your old set on one of my own scopes. -Christopher...
Has anyone converted an Orion 120 on orions astroview mount to a goto scope? I kind of like that idea of using Msads DS motors if possible, don't know if they...
