Am I the only one who has one? I ordered mine from Anacortes on 18 April and it was delivered on 16 August. Mine works but due to weather, I haven't had a lot...
Hi Bill, Thanks for posting your impressions of your newly received mySky. I have not received mine as yet. I agree with you on Meade not including the needed...
Bill, No I haven't received mine yet. I ordered it from Telescopes.com on 1 June. We'll be interested to hear more when you have the chance to use it! Gordon...

... Hi Bill,Just hung up from Meade Support. The tech said the part# for the cable is #04549. It took lots of turning of pages for the tech(?) to give me this...
mine arrived today, ordered from amazon may 31. i've played with it for perhaps an hour - we are socked in here, so largely demo mode. i agree w/most of bills...
I had two nights, one cloud curtailed, to further try the MySky. Before I forget, when you get yours and you are pointing it at stars and objects, point it at...
i've had my mysky for 2 days, and today i called meade c.s. to get answers to some fairly basic questions (owing in part to the fact that the manual is very...
1/ battery voltage below which it won't operate? i'd like to use NiMh's @ 1.2v each. I'm experimenting now. 2/ switching modes seems to require a reboot. is...
Opt today said they should be receiving and sending out the remainder of their MySky orders soon. They do not have the cables or any info on them. Bill...

After not being able to get into the queue for a MySky in time for this initial release, I have to say that I'm not feeling so bad. I haven't been able to find...

I was trying MySky again last night. During the first two minutes, I had a display of 8 satellites during the GPS Acquisition phase and then all of them were...
Glenn, I look forward to your impressions. I agree that the "Oh, it is that one!" aspect of the MySky is the most appealing so far. In that regard, I'm...
