re cables

Thanks all,Thanks Mark for Lindy link,that looks handy.

Looks like a 5m 'powered cable' will do the job.I currently have two 1.8 m cables from DS joined together with tape,so they do not pull apart,(starting to sound a bit dodgy!!).But after a few demos last Wednesday,it appears its worth the expense to get better set up in the observatory.

I should have enough slack at base of pier,for slewing,and enough cable to get me under roof part of observatory to a desk and out of a bit of the cold and dew. Chris
