Hi Dave, I have both the EXT and LX 90's. I got back into the hobby with the purchase of the EXT with Autostar and tripod. I happily used that scope for a...
OK here is the latest installment!!!!! Per Kevin's suggestions we added a terrestrial landmark. Then slewed 90 degrees to the left. And hit go to. It overshot...
