Hi Robert. I've got a pretty basic pool pump shed with a flip top roof. Apart from having to manually open and close the roof and remove the dustcap from the scope almost everything else is now automated. I built my own arduino weather station and wrote some VB code to allow it to talk via ASCOM. It is actually remarkably easy to do and a lot less cost than the commercial units.
