Nice considering the lack pf a motorised mount. Any closer to figuring out whats going on with your EQ5?

Thanks Bruce. No closer to sorting it. My testing results defy all logic.
How can the R.A, motor rotate the mount 15 degrees per hour, as it should, and yet as soon as I open the shutter it is as though the motor
is only rotating the mount at around 3 degrees per minute?
