Thanks Alex, Haven't had much time for AP lately, with some fairly major
health concerns with she who must be obeyed.
Hi Michael, My polar alignment is still hit and miss, still working on it, I
would like to try fitting a polar scope to the side of the tracker. I am at
present using the Vixen Polarie device with mixed success. I have tried
at 135mm, but the 55-250mm is fairly slow, and the ball joints have to be tightened up really tight to handle the weight, and I'm afraid of stripping the threads. I did manage some subs at 100secs with the 50mm on one
occasion.
