Hi Guys

The main purpose I had in mind for using this software pairing of SkyTools and Dragon Speaking, was for just sitting at the ‘scope eyepiece and working my way through a list of objects in a single constellation.

By restricting the GoTo’s to a small region of the sky (a single constellation) and using a limited vocabulary of commands, I hope to be able to use this unexpected pairing to remain comfortably at the eyepiece and work my way through a list of objects in a single constellation, such as:
  • Doubles in Scorpius.
  • DSO’s in Sagittarius,
  • NGC Galaxies in Virgo, etc.
I have used Digital Sky Voice for my Vixen GPDX which is a true voice control of telescope software, but it is currently off the market (has been for almost 3 years) and it did not support the Tak EM200.

If I can also find a suitable Bluetooth wireless headset/mike, it will reduce the need for me to be tethered to the PC via my current headset umbilical cord.

Cheers

Dennis
