I'm in Tucson at the moment but thought I'd just post a little update to this thread. At the Arizona Science and Astronomy Expo over the weekend I had the opportunity to speak directly with Dan Bisque about the issue I've been reporting in this thread. It was great to meet him and I must say that meeting him in person was completely different to any preconceived expectation I may have carried in my mind based on experiences at the SB forum. The upshot was a very productive discussion and hopefully a resolution. SB is mailing me a new RA motor which should arrive in Los Angeles shortly. I was promised a software TCS solution if somehow the motor fails to resolve the issue. I have come away from this experience very satisfied!!

BTW the Expo was fantastic and it is rapidly growing into a major astronomy event in the USA. The quality of exhibits and speakers left nothing to be desired. My own desire to buy everything that appealed however went sadly unfulfilled!
