Thanks for your input Gary.

Roger.
Hi Roger,

Now if the Universities had taught we engineers how to touch type
rather than waste our time on General Studies, I may have been quicker on
the draw.

No worries. And don't panic. Some have reported luck here with the ATEN
and if the ends justifies the means and it works for you on the mount and
camera under Vista, you are set!

However, perhaps the thread would have been shorter if I had come in earlier.

"Keyspan" should really be a knee-jerk response in my opinion on forums when it comes
to a reliable USB Serial recommendation for astronomy control applications.
As you know, we provide service to customers worldwide, seven days a week
and so we get to hear the stories about all the brands of Serial adapters
people use. The nice thing for us is I know that when we ship
one of the Keyspan adapters half-way around the world, perhaps to somewhere like
Norway, along with one of our own telescope computers, is that we are not going
to see it come back and that it is known and proven to work.

If you ever need one and can't find them, as i mention, we normally have them in stock.

Best Regards
