This has come about due to me being new EQMOD as up until recently I had been using Stellarium to control the mount directly through the Synscan hand piece so there was no need for Stellariumscope or EQMOD and that worked extremely well using the hand piece to do a three star alingment and that was all it needed, but then Stellarium started to freeze up all the time so I changed to TheSky6 and EQMOD.
Great software so it just looks like I didn't have EQMOD setup correctly at this stage. 
Just have to wait for some clear sky's, I think it's been almost four months since we had anything decent in the way stars down here.  |
lol ken thanks mate we have had the same issue being new to eqmod
Is the modeling data lost if you move it out of park ect each time? so i take it you have to hit the save icon in eqmod each sync? only had to chances 2 use it so far
dam weather
BTW you can do the BL chip mod with your 900nc which is pretty simple will give you way better results guiding and isn't like the long exposure one with all the chip cutting ect.
