Let me tell you about my experience with Meade service. They have a Helpdesk for service inquiries. You generate a "ticket" describing your problem and it says...
I would call back and ask to speak to a supervisor, be willing to wait, explain, keep records of when you called and how many times you have tried to resolve...
I agree with Karl. Give them a call again. I have an LX200 that I got used, called them up because I was missing a part (the part that goes between the focal...
Hi Folks; I've updated my Astro images web site http://www.outcastsoft.com/AstroImages/AstroIndex.html with some new DSO objects and re-processed some of my...
Hi All, I finally ended a long dry spell of not getting any images. Went out to Little Blair Valley on the weekend of 18 Aug and spent Friday and Saturday...
Hi all, I think this is my first post here. Does anyone have a way to update the firmware and related files on a Meade LX200 GPS scope. I'm aware of a mac...
I downloaded KIS last night and was playing around with it trying to figure out if it was something I wanted to keep (and pay for). Problem I'm having is on...
... AutoStarX doesn't support Autostar II yet I working on adding Autostar II support for at least the rom flashing. I don't have any ETA on that as I'm doing...
Rodolphe - very happy to know you may do this work... Major Thanks David On Aug 29, 2006, at 7:34 PM, Rodolphe Pineau wrote: ... AutoStarX doesn't support...
Hi Jeff, I've already aligned the bubble level via the "run the dec up and down keeping Polaris on the the vertical line to ensure proper orientation" method...
I assume you'll be there, Jeff. Will you be manning a Mac tent? I have paid my attendance and meal fees even though I am not certain I can be there. I'm going...
Hi David, I hope to make it but I may be donating to CAS myself. No Mac tent this year. Although, I never pay the meal fees. I don't think that I can make all...
Has anyone here had a chance to play with the latest version of Starry Night Pro (and Pro Plus) yet? I received an e-mail from them about the recent release of...
No, Keith's Image Stacker won't do rotations. But you could try to pre-rotate them with GraphicConverter. 1) Identify a couple of widely separated stars in...
Hi David It's my program and currently it is called YackerStacker and still under development but at quite an advanced stage. Mostly it is user interface...
... Indeed! My cousin, a serious car guy (five antique Chryslers), liked the rruck and the first time I pulled into his driveway he said "That thing is leaking...
... I received my upgrade to Pro Plus 6 earlier in the week. Installed it last night and found a few issues - some trouble with the way it points my Sirius...
Thanks Paul, I really appreciate the feedback/info! If you don't mind a few more questions, can you tell me if there are any significant changes to the...
Do you have an Intel Mac? I used bootcamp with Windows to upgrade mine. Other options that I personally am not eager to attempt a firmware update through, is ...
Nicely done. I'm an astro imaging novice, but I do have one recommendation. Maybe try taking the 6.3 off and shoot straight 10 for M56. That would bring some...
Ditto to what Julie said. Also, does the all screen sky photo work as fast as they say it does (faster than in SNPP 5)? Does anybody know if this is a...
HERE! ...and sorry for all the posts. It got so quiet in here I started slacking :) That truck was very nice. The roomiest back seat of a pickup I had ever...
Duane, while I keep my fingers permanently crossed for a pure Mac solution, I am willing to try Crossover. I really dont want to have Windows on my computer -...
SNP is a Universal Binary since 5.8.2. Version 6 is working well for me on my 1.8 MacBook, except for a known Intel bug for LX200 control that's awaiting a...
