The LX6 was Meades first digital control scope released in 1988. It virtually became obsolete in 1992 on the release of the LX200. It had encoders (an extras kit I think) and a microprocessor in the base that could read them. I don't know about the Y2k bug but it is probable. The LX200 avoided this because luckily you could get the correct date if you started from 00.
I have an LX6 base (-OTA) on the bench but it used a Sky vector and the Meade processor may not work. I must test it sometime. I don't have the Sky vector other than the encoders (4096) but they are compatable with the Argo Navis as a direct plug in.
