Dear All
I ordered an EQ6 goto from NVT and it arrived today. I must say that they were very helpful. I ordered it at the "special price" advertised but that offer had expired. He searched around and decided that I could have one for the same price. When I opened the boxes today, low and behold it's the "pro" version. I am very pleased.:D
Now I have a question. (It's cloudy off course so I can't test this myself)
Does it matter which way the dovetail fastening bolts point when initializing the scope? The manual tells me to start with it aiming south. but depending on which way the bolts are pointing this could be either north or south to the scope or is it clever enough to work this out.
My GP mount with SS2000 started with the scope aiming east with the motor uppermost. If you put it the other way is started aiming for the ground.
Thanks in advance and enjoy the clouds.:rofl:
