That'll be handy Jay, about 12years ago when I did this stuff for a living, we had object charts hanging all over the walls. You sort of get used to the paper version. It has been a bit hard to pick it up again without that to be honest

This new visual studio I'm using now doesn't even have a built in help file, it takes you on line to MSDN. Satan's Sanctuary
But, I have managed to build a working ascom driver for an SX serial wheel .. Yahhh.


The compass project however has failed. The enormous stratco roof hanging off the back of this house warps the field too much. The compass is off by almost 40 degrees to the south east but correct to the north west. It will not fix my pointing issues in the dome. At least I believe it's the steel roof causing the issues.

Anyone want a compass chip to play with?

The other parts are now in a garage automation project to use iwup from an iphone to control the garage and the bluetooth bits are for either the mount or the wheel.
