Very good point about PPEC, and PAE too I figure.

The connector conundrum has everyone baffled - Its the same Synscan handset but the mount has a slightly lower voltage TTL spec which 'may' be accommodated by the mount. But 100% of the dongles tried on EQ8 mounts have failed. All one of them

Time will tell where the issue lies. I'm sure the tenacious community will have it solved very quickly!
