Thanks so much to Tex and Cathy for all your help! Cathy sent me the EQ mod cable which is terrific. Tex spent a couple of hours late at night with me, talking me through the download, installation and setup of every bit of ASCOM software I needed to get the EQ8 working with Stellarium Scope.

The mount is now quieter, deadly accurate and so simple to acquire a target and lock on. It's now child's play.

I'll be the first to admit I may have a slight adult learning disability in that written tutorials are very hard for me to make sense of. Practical use of demonstrate, explain and practice is how I learn - by doing. So thanks Tex, for your mammoth effort to get the ball rolling. And thanks Cathy, for putting up with my endless questions to try and wrap my head around what others seem to find so simple.
