First night was hard but fun work with this set up!


Martin, do you have a link to those instructions on setting up the heq5pro? Overall, i think i did a decent job of alignment but my lack of knowledge of the sky made choosing alignment stars hard, and the stars i chose seemed not to be ideal (other than sirius). The scope sees so many stars that its currently hard for me to know if I'm choosing the right one to align to! I was so far off after slewing that i often couldn't find the star in my finder scope! I'll report back after tonights effort, hoping for a step forward


But thanks again for all input, I'm feeling good about having decent gear that i dont need to question... i know that the weak link is my knowledge and its motivating to lock it down
