OK - usually when a new version of anything comes out, it adds features to the original product - especially when the name includes the word "Plus"! So, other...
I had that same thought! I’ve had no problems at all with the GPS capabilities of my MySky – it’s worked flawlessly and pointing accuracy is dead on. If...
The links that I referred to led to reviews of a pre-official release of new software. It may be unfair to condemn Meade based on the sneak peak advanced copy...
To all of those of you that have offered help and advice to get my Astronomical Societies mySKY unit back into service , I would like to thank you. The UK...
Since GPS acquisition never worked on my unit these are good news - the ability to add a custom location is really what I have been ... So, I'm crossing my...
Each time I try to update the SD card it completes,verifies the update BUT does'nt change the version(1.2tc). I repeated the prosses after reinstalling...
The problem is that the software should contact Meades web site and get the latest version but it doesn't hence the version doesn't change. You reinstalled so...
I have a mysky and hope to save up for a telescope to use with it. I am looking at the ETX 80 on amazon for 260. Does anyone have experience with this...
Since the ETX80 already has an Autostar I am not sure how much you would gain by connecting mySKY to it, especially if your funds are limited. Once you connect...
I don't think the MySky will connect directly to the 494 controller as it is not RS232. As regards to price I could not sell my ETX80 at $100.00 so I broke it ...
It can be connected to both Autostar 494 and 497 - you just need to get the Meade cable set which contains cables for: AutoStar #497 controlled telescopes...
Ah, don't worry - you just did what we all did. Read the full thread at: http://tech.groups.yahoo.com/group/meade_mysky/message/339 There's the answer to your...
Thank You, The Weasner link answered a lot of questions. I had hoped that connecting the mysky and telescope would simplfy autostar for my daughter. I...
Thanks to one and all for your responses. So much more than I expected!! I guess msg. 380 is the solution so when I have a few hours (you know how easy Meade...
Hi to all, I got a brandnew MySky PLUS. Was so stupid to try an upgrade without saving the content of the original Firmware (1.3b). SD-card was 'downgraded' to...
Hi I joined the group about a year ago, when MySky was first coming out. I received a MySky last summer, used it briefly, then returned it, dissapointed in its...
... Well, I'm extraordinarily disappointed with it. I bought one in May at RTMC. It lasted for about an hour before the on/off switch failed completely. I...
HI, I have a My Sky that has two broken switches (power and brightness_down). Someone got a hold of it and pushed too hard causing two of the microswitches to...
I'm returning mine. It just doesn't work. The GPS isn't activated any more and you can't even enter coordinates for where you live. I was travelling to a...
Kinda happy with mine...But started with bad firm ware. Had to call Meade and they sent me a new sd card for $5. Nice that the device did not work out of the...
Received my mysky the other day have had no problems with it so far. It has version 1.3b and seems accurate to my limited knowledge. It cost $149 including...
... I did a 'disk image' of the unit (using a program called WinImage) when I first got my MySky. I then attempted to 'upgrade' the firmware, which promptly...
