Still, I bet you want to get an AP mount next time! Think of how many images you missed out on taking because of all this.

Hi Greg,
I live in Melbourne. So I haven't missed that many nights. What makes you think I want another mount? This WAS supposed to be my last mount ever!! I'm sure that, one day, something new will spark my interest, so you're probably right.
Other than the frustration of having paid for something which should be the duck's nuts and ending up with another mount which needs mucking about with, I haven't lost too much imaging time. A few half nights here and there, and a couple of full nights over the last week or two. Luckily I'm a persistent mongrel and could usually coax the mount to life and get some imaging done.
I'm looking forward to some trouble free imaging now. I have also learned heaps about the internals of the mount, I reckon I could service the PMXs in Australia now!
Cheers
Stu
