Great to hear Peter,

I was using Voyager last night and with the passing high cloud, I was delighted when it recovered from a lost guide star. Much better than my previous experience with CCD Commander - if anything failed, it just proceeded onto the next action in the script.

I'm hoping Voyager evolves into an alternative for ACP Scheduler. It does intelligent scheduling, chooses the most suitable target (based on position in the sky and a host of other criteria) from a list without you having to script the entire run each evening. The market needs alternatives and ACP has had a monopoly on that task for a while. (This is for the school observatory I help to run, not my own setup unfortunately - my own gear will remain a temporary setup for the foreseeable future)

Would love to hear about your Arduino Weather Station - any chance you'd write it up as a project for others? I really enjoy mucking around with that stuff, but have no real idea about coding.
