Thanks my IIS buddies appreciate all the useful feedback

While I will start to utilise more of the capabilities of this mount over time, to be honest I don't really care if I don't have perfect PA or pointing, it is really not a big issue when imaging one target over 3 nights, particularly given we rarely want the target sitting in the middle of the frame anyway for the final image, so we move the scope to frame it Once framed, I will just re-calibrate on that object, so the goto the next time goes straight to it with the exact framing ....or at least I imagine that's how it would work

Mike
