I recently bought my first "real" scope, a Meade LT6, and am still learning the ropes. Loving the easy setup/alignment and goto. I'm a bit confused about something though. The manual states: "Press the Scroll keys to move through the options. Press and hold a Scroll key to move quickly through the options." ..but whenever I press and hold a scroll key (in any menu or list), nothing happens at all. Scrolling through long lists is a pain, having to press the scroll key so many times. This sounds like it would be great if it worked. Does this work on anyone else's Autostar? (Note: I have the Audiostar version of the handbox, not sure if that makes a difference)

Makes a huge difference.
In the Audiostars, Meade "bless em", pinched the autoscrolling function keys and remapped them to rewind/replay the audio track.
Perhaps they thought the audio was more important than being able to move around fast.
I dont know a way around it.

Bummer. That's was a pretty weird decision, that's a core function. It's just the standard arrow up/down keys after all, and audio only plays on goto anyway. Wonder if it could be hacked/patched?
Anyway, thanks for letting me know. I thought I may have been doing doing it wrong or something!
