Or starting my adventure towards getting really good polar alignment. Now from my findings it seems I need to speed up the RA motor on my Dual Axis Osypowski platform. I remember seeing how to do that in the instructions but unfortunetly I have lost them. It also seems the long weekend has Taken Tom out to a star party. I actually am planning on going out tonight as well, therefore I was hoping someone on the forums owns the same platform and can please share with my either a copy of the instructions via email or even described in the forums. Thanks. Post Extras:       Pages: 1 Previous   Index   Next   Threaded   Extra information 28 registered and 23 anonymous users are browsing this forum.
