This rocks!!! Dave, it's very cool. What was the time frame on this? It almost looks like the end is right before sunrise. And how did you go anywhere...
We had our first AISIG Meeting Saturday. Since there was only one person that showed up at 3:00, we took a tour of the undeveloped AISIG site. There is a lot...
Sorry I couldn't make it out for the meeting Carey. I found out Saturday morning that my truck needs to be worked on and now have the parts on order. I thought...
That's cool. I expect to have more people at the one on the 25th since it's the Marathon. I could have a pretty big captive audience if someone could lewer...
Sounds nice - I'll try and schedule a non-imaging time to stop by and take a look at it.<smile> Think how nice it would be to have the wedge already setup and...
Yeah, I was thinking about that on the drive home. Some kind of box to go over the top and lock under the base. It will be nice when my power problems get...
Carey, What's the problem with power? Have you looked at Gateway Electronics? They have a ton of surplus power adapters of every type, shape, and description,...
The Autostar that I added to my mount if very picky about the input power. It seems that any device that puts out 12.5 volts before the load causes it to slew...
Carey, Yikes, never put a dead battery into a battery pack. The dead battery operates like black hole into which the other batteries will rapidly dump their...
Yeah, I know. I've got a wire in there now to leave out 1 battery, but the rest have to be fully charged. Thanks for the tip. I bet those are a lot better...
Anyone interested in electronics gear that might be available as a surplus item should check out this shop: Gateway Electronics 9222 Chesapeake Dr San Diego,...
Thanks Alice! It was fun to do, and a little different from the normal routine. This was taken with the Rebel and standard lens on a tripod, 5 minute ...
Carey, How much current do you need at 12V? I have swveral different 12V regulated power supplies in my various stashes at home. all you need is the right...
Randy, I have no idea how much current I need. I am so confused about this. At AT school they teach you just enough to be a technician not an engineer. The...
Carey, I got a nice used Lambda brick-size power supply at Gateway or Industrial Liquidators (I don't remember which) for $15 or so. It's very well regulated...
Well here's something. I use Energizer Rechargeable AA Batteries. The batteries are rated for 1.2 V. The motors came with a holder that holds 10 batteries....
Carey, Using small batteries is a challenge. The difficulty is that the voltage is only correct at a particular current drain. If that is exceeded, then the...
I think you missed the point. It works fine with the AA batteries totaling 12V DC It doesn't with every other power source; AC/DC wall wart and car jumper. I...
Thank Bob, Oh, I've tried eskimo lots of times. My attempts usually go right in the waste bin. I find the Eskimo to be a unique kind of challenge. Its soo...

I can't wait to see that shot of Saturn. I've been so caught up in shooting faint fuzzies (because it's finally been working) that I've put the webcam by the...

Dave, I took a look at the GuideMaster website and saw schematics for an interface. How are you interfacing the webcam with the scope for guiding with...
