Hi All.

Anyone with experience with Skycommander XP4 on a Dob?

Thanks. Rod

I owned a Sky Commander for a while. It was ok, but it's a very basic unit. Have you heard of the Nexus DSC?

Thanks Allan. You might have to call Serge for a position..... I'm sold and definitely want one of these! (And I swore I'd never go for digital positioning, must be getting lazy in my old age!)

Yes I think Serge owes me a few commissions by now. Plus the 3 units I've bought from him already. The Nexus DSC really is exceptional though and you are going to be thrilled with it.

The other thing, I use to be a 100% star hopper. Now days it's all DSC and push to, or full GOTO, and I get to observe 5 times more objects. So I don't call it lazy, I just reckon it's smart use of technology.
