I am trying to locate Hershel's Garnet Star (Mu Cephi). I know MySky will take an SAO number. Does anyone know of a database with SAO numbers that will cross...
... I believe the star you want is SAO 33693 As a quick reference, I have posted a file (a webpage, zipped) created by José Luis Cuéllar Cuevas for the...
Thank you very much! The names326tab file is exactly what I was looking for. I opened it in Excell, hid a few columns I did not need just now and it is...
I too have found the GPS fix very erratic in its availability. I was not able to get a GPS fix for the first three days I had MySky. The unit was placed out in...

Hello all, I opened my MySky at Christmas. After reading in November a few of the old posts I was a tad worried I had wasted my money. Still, I updated to...

Hi there, The mySky-manual (and the menu) indicates a possibility to connect to a Meade-scope via a "Cable Set" and to a computer as well.The scope- connection...
... The cable set does not provide a cable for a PC connection. None of the cords have the DB9 connector needed to attach to the PC. So i have my doubts about...
Why would you want to connect it to a computer. MySky is like a handset or a computer that can be used to control a telescope. It would not be able to do much...
Well I've been lurking on this list as well as the Celestron group trying to make up my mind which one to buy. The OPT sale ($299) made the decision for me -...
Having bought, and then returned to the retailer, both aSkyScout and mySky, I am now a "lurker" also. Eventually, when one or the other company cleans up its...
