Skywatcher AUTOTRACk and GOTO Dobs

Hi,

I was also interested in these.

I spoke to Gary from Argo, and there is no encoder for the auto tracking dobs ( issues with the engineering. as the autotrack is NOT your standard dob ).

Exactly how accurate it is, no idea. It will be at least 2 months before the GOTO versions are available, and then, there have been some discomforting stories about these as well. Taken off the market, virtually as soon as released last time, and could be the same issues causing this release to be delayed.

How true is that ? Don't know, just my 20c worth.

Cheers
DOC
