i havent had a chance to check out the AN yet because of the weather but i have done an encoder/mechanical test and all seems fine so far.

i cant wait to check it out but im interested to know if anyone else has had a similar problem and im not sure what i can do to fix it other than either raise the height of the ota or lower the encoder somehow, ill post some photos if i get a chance tomorrow
Got my AN on Wednesday. All ready to go, not a star since due to the weather. Gave me plenty of time to set things up properly. Photos at;

I have upgraded from a Dave Ek Box with PalmDSC. I decided against a AN about 4 years ago and bought a StellarVue Refractor. Sold the StellarVue Refractor last week and bought a Argo Navis.

All the best with your AN.
