Diy st4

Hi All,

Has anyone have any good resources on a DIY USB or Serial to ST4 connection to use with an EQ6 mount and auto guiding (PHD?) software.

Soldering and circuit design etc is easy.

Im aware i could guide using EQmod and the serial hand controller port.. is this good? has anyone have experience with this. if its good, DIY links would be appreciated.

If things are easy enough and i am successful im happy to DIY for someone else.

Ive done a fair share of googling and have a lot to read. Id love any personal experiences and recommendations on this topic. Thanks

Steve

The interface from Astrogene works well I bought one just after I bought my EQ6. Well made and well supported by Gene.
