When the Guang Sheng Optical (GSO) 16" truss pole Dob was released,
some were asking on this forum about the availability of an Argo Navis
encoder kit for it and I promised to make an announcement as soon as
it became available.

We're proud to say we now have an encoder solution available for this scope
and you can read about it on this web page here -
http://www.wildcard-innovations.com.au/kits/pn-gs-16-spec_describe.html
By clicking on the links for the installation instructions, you can also
see some pictures.

The scopes are currently available in Australia from suppliers such as
York Optical and Bintel.

Well done Gary i cant wait for the modified Trunion to return, The new moon will be an allnighter putting the Argo-Navis through its paces.

Last weekend I went out and purchased also new Toshiba notebook with XP to allow me to use Starry Night in conjunction with the Argo-Navis to give me a better viewing experience.

The Argo-Navis will be an important modification to my GSO 16" and it will compliment all the other stiffening trusses that were added.

I,ll give you a full report Gary after the observation session with Trevor Barry who is also eagerly waiting to to put his Argo-Navis through its paces.

Once again Gary thanks for the great friendly service that you give.

Cheers.......Kev.

Thanks for that Gary. I've always been impressed with your taking the time to participate in these forums.

Now if only I had a 16" truss pole dob... and an Argo Navis...

Thanks Kev,

As soon as the trunnion arrives, I will drop you a line.

Great to hear you picked up the Toshiba notebook and a copy of Starry Night
Pro. As we spoke about, you will be able to interface Argo Navis to it.

Would look forward to seeing some images of your additional stiffening trusses.

All the best to you and Trevor and we appreciate your support.

Judging by the weather reports of late, I notice it has been getting nippy
even at Broken Hill.

Best Regards

Gary

Hi Randall,

Thank you. I really appreciate that.

I have it on good authority that Santa enjoys the occasional break up there
on the beautiful Sunshine coast, so we have our fingers crossed for you.

Best regards

Gary

Hi Kev,

Thank you. As I mentioned via email, your trunnion arrived here in Sydney
on Friday afternoon. It has now had a coupler added and it and the other
components in your Argo Navis system are packed and ready and will ship
first thing Monday morning.

Some 'before' and 'after' pictures of your trunnion are attached.

Hope this coming New Moon weekend brings you the clearest of skies.

Best Regards

Hi Kev,

Great to hear all has arrived.

We will be at Border Stargaze from Friday 29th Aug 2008 - Sun 31st Aug 2008,
where Wildcard is a sponsor. If you require any assistance during that time,
please do not hesitate to email sales@wildcard-innovations.com.au and we will
attempt to respond whilst we are on the road. However, our response times are likely to
be longer than normal.

I am sure Trevor there in Broken Hill, who I talked to again on the phone only
yesterday, will also have some useful tips to pass on, if need be.

Good luck!

Best Regards
