Thanks for the link to that review. Using the Meade mySky in Central Park, NYC, is a great example of how these hand held units can help. Glenn _____ From:...
Just talked to Meade customer service and they said sometime this summer. It is anyones guess. I am sure it will not be June. They did say that the units will...
... Hmmmm. In the interim, a small piece of red Plexiglass or fragment of Ruby-Lith "might" suffice to effect a pseudo-night-vision mode. A full-color LCD is...
Hi I just joined the group and like everyone else am interested in when the MySky is going to start shipping. Any news? Also, is there any word on how many...
It has been a while since I viewed the Meade MySky demo, but I got the impression that will basically have access to the LX 200 data base with a downloadable...
Thanks. So it sounds like we'll be able to pick out objects that are fainter than 5th or 6th magnitude? Guess that would be tough, considering you can't see...
... If it's at least as good as Celestron's SkyScout, and there's no reason to suspect otherwise given the readily-available sensors needed for such a device,...
My Celestron SkyScout is dead on and has been wonderful to use. The audio content, text and other functions such as “Trace” where the SkyScout guides you...
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...
I called OPT this afternoon. All the telescope phone lines were busy. I talked to a guy in cameras and he told me they received a limited number of MySkys. He...
... 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...

Tom, The only positive review that I have read is on the OPT site; HYPERLINK "http://www.optcorp.com/product.aspx?pid=1198-1200-9552&tb=8"http://www.optc ...
Well received my device today. Put in new batteries. Went outside and stood as far away from any metal objects as possible (as recommended in instructions)....
Sorry to hear about your bad experience. I hate it when cool things ought to work but don't. Just an idea... you might try removing the batteries, waiting...
i have learned, since my earlier posts, the following: . there IS a way to 'power scroll' through lists. it's through the use of the right/left arrows....
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...
