Hi... Perhaps the problems are similar - there seems to be a lot of variation in MySky performance. Some seem to give no problems. With mine, if I calibrate it...

The LX-200 Classic IS a go-to scope. It just doesn't have built in GPS. There are several aftermarket devices that add GPS to the Classic go-to so it can't be...
Yes. My impression is the mySKY will act exactly like the Starry Night software I have on my PC--more of an Autostar compliment than replacement. mySKY...
I hate to sound like a broken record, but acting like Starry Night does not "add GPS functions to non-gps scopes" like Meade advertises. GPS aids in alignment...
Correct. I was attempting to imply the mySKY is more like a database than GPS, and by adding an LNT module only then will the ETX have GPS. Having an LNT ETX...
