When I sent those .jpgs the other day, I had my horizon off. When I went back to make CdC charts, I had it on. The warping or kinking problem now seems to be...
... OK. I also could reproduce some kind of warping in the Eq grid, with my own settings, but could not find a general condition on the occurrence of this...
AHA! now that's an obvious clue! I suspect Patrick is trying to account for the effects of atmospheric refraction, which is most pronounced right at the...
I would like to request that posters don't attach files. Those of us who get the Digest version can't read them in any case, and they add an enormous amount...
... John I think you got it !!! The warping is clearly modified when one change the observatory parameters (atmospheric pressure and temperature) influencing...
I checked the details a little closer (I had always wondered why temperature and pressure were included in the observatory settings). Mine (v2.74) _does_ show...
Thank's John for your great analysis of this problem! This also explain why I cannot reproduce the problem using the cdc file because I don't store the...
Now that I know about the atmospheric refraction feature of CdC, I'm curious about an asteriod. There was a published picture, taken by one of the men on the...

Great program, I'm running a SkySensor 2000 PC v2.05. Can't connect. It will connect when I set the SSK to the LX200 setting. How ever the LX200 connections ...
