Cheers Suavi, I have to say although the setup worked well straight up, there had been a few delays with order problems and I had some trepidation on how it would all work, not to mention the long wait for the finances to come to fuition just to buy the damn thing! Would I be bitterly disappointed or would I have lots of connection issues or what if, what if.....? so, as Greg said, the relief was indeed palpable

From now on we'll all expect a wide field and a closeup when you post.

Huh! I can't actually do that, the two scopes are as wide as the shutter opening, I would be turning the dome every few minutes ...unless I get dome automation...
