Skywacther auto-tracking, any help
Well my frustrations of tonight have brought me to the internet.
I have posted here before but no solution, so again with some more info to tell you an answer is possible.
Some info
NOT Synscan
NOT EQ-#
NOT Skytracker
IS Skywatcher Autotracking
i.e, has motors, ALT and AZ
The instructions are dodgy as,
e.g, ISS is of not as people space, "their is much written on this method".
Storyline:
I took my scope out tonight with intentions of using the autotracking feature. So I did what the instructions said and the subject moves out quicker (in the same direction) as it would turned off.
I then used the keypad whilst tracking was on, and the subject moved within the eyepiece. I thought "perhaps this is how to calibrate this !%#@@#%^^$%". But oh no, that aint in the instructions and it doesn't seem to work anyway.
So I probably got talked into the "the most powerful (expensive) scope here" that was a joke to skywatcher, no one actualy owns one and that there are no reviews explaining the 'con'.
