GPS for LXD55
      #6088 - 08/11/03 07:18 AM

I have just purchased a GPS attachment for my scope. It plugs into the autostar and sets up your position etc as any other GPS will. I got it from SCS Astro (England) for £150. Has anyone else used or seen this apparent new item for the LXD55 scope?

No I haven't heard about it.

Sounds expensive just to know where your exact location is.

There are several internet sites that will give your lat/lon for free.

Let us know how it works out.

Thanks I will, hopefully it may make the difference between my scope pointing to my big toe and actually looking skywards!!
