Many thanks John for the info provided - much appreciated.
Gary Kopff, from Wildcard Inn. has informed me via the Yahoo group that the next general firmware release will include the moon - release date has not yet been announced.
Re: ServoCat tracking should keep the moon in the FOV - Yes, this is my experience. Actually, the reason why I posted the question in the first place was because I was having trouble tracking the moon at high power. I took my scope with me on a field camp last year with a bunch of students. WFOV was not a problem but leaving the students by them selves to look at the moon using a narrow FOV EP was a bit challenging - I needed to constantly nudge the hand-pad between student observations. I couldn't get away (I needed to do other things at the time) as they would loose control of the hand pad. Dare I say, these were Uni students..... actually they were a nice bunch of clever students, but accurate tracking of the moon at high power would be nice.
Cheers
Steve
