David,

The battery placement and resolution news is good to hear - I didn't know the battery size was so critical, nor that this type of battery was variable in its dimensions.

The gearing sounds absolutely bizarre and could easily account for what you are experiencing. I think you need to check with others users of the same mount what numbers of teeth their gears have. Having to set your RA ratio to +72x144 would be do-able. But I would be trying to work out did the factory ship it this way or did a previous user do something strange!

If you find all other users have a different gear ratio to you - then you can either try and purchase the correct set of gears for RA or adjust the gearing ratio in the SS2K.

That takes the cake for the most unusual problem I have ever heard!

Matthew
