You getting such a good result has cheered me up today.

Your just keep hitting them out of the park and you deserve all your good results and forward progress...

Thanks Alex,
Very kind comments and glad it has cheered you up
I was expecting problems but all went like clockwork. The Astro gods have been kind to me
Just a bit of tuning on the EQ8-R worms plus some more balance testing
PHD2 just worked seamlessly, I thought guiding this big long OTA with a guide scope would cause problems. I made sure everything was solid as a rock and used big solid Losmandy bars and stainless hex bolts, spring washers and flat washers etc..,

Cheers
Martin
