[Dennis]

Has anyone tried one of these yet?

"OCAL electronic collimator - The revolutionary way to collimate your instrument is with OCAL, the new smart device that allows you to collimate your Newtonian telescope via your computer in a simple, precise and fast way."

I think I also noticed an RC version whilst trying to investigate further, but cannot find the link now.

Cheers

Yes I have tried it and no I haven't tested the results yet (https://www.iceinspace.com.au/forum/showthread.php?t=193149)

Because of my unique situation that I have I cannot swing the scope off the mount in the dome as I have it g clamped to the pier. My other mount is in my pants at the dry cleaners in Sydney

It looks like Sidereal Trading is now a local distributor, although at the time of writing this, they are not yet in stock.

It looks like Sidereal Trading will be supplying the PRO version of the OCAL Electronic Collimator.

I have put my order in.:)
