Hi All,

Can users of this great program provide some kindly answer some queries. And provide comparisons with Starry Night and TheSky. This applications seems to be the best value for money and is locally made product. I especially like the huge object database provided with the Advanced version.

I have a couple of questions:

Does it provide a live view mode, where what you see objects moving as the real sky moves?

Does it allow you to drag the Chart view around with the mouse like SN does?

Does it permit setup of location via GPS device? From what I have been able to gather SN and TSky only permit manual entry.

Can it send GPS information to Telescope along with time and date? In a format understood by Autostar 497?

Does it have anything similar to Tpoint or Maxpoint to help create a mount model and coreect for mount errors?

Fahim

Unfortunately several PM's and emails have not had any response. Maybe I am not getting through the spam filters.
