There is also a feature where the motors stop tracking in RA after a certain series of button presses when using the PC to motor feature (similar to EQMOD). Except that EQMOD works.
Also as stated elsewhere the code for GPS compatability is changed to that only skywatcher GPS units will work.
I wonder how the latter will fare if they were challenged under Australian consumer laws? ie disabling a feature so only their unit works - isn't that "unfair trading" or unfair competition?
Must ask some of my lawyer friends if they can be challenged here in Australia for such a practice as I still have the emails where they state they changed the code so only theirs works. Hmmmm - something to do on these cloudy nights.
