Mike,


That is a complete understatement. I have not posted even a quarter of the drama involved, not to mention time lost and expense of troubleshooting which is particularly difficult when remote. Sadly, the only way I was able to finally sort this out (along with a major camera issue only adding to the frustration) was to take my gear home and spend two weeks running test after test. Anyway, the camera issue is resolved and I'm feeling quite confident that the new TEC FRC is going to perform as expected. Overall, between these two issues, a dec motor failure on my MEII that took ages to figure out, and rotator collimation issues (that Martin Pugh solved!) I lost about a year of imaging. Boo hoo.
