Re: My LX90 12" hasn't got "calibrate sensors", Why?

Well Joseph, you could be right, I don't know. The bad thing is that I went to our dark site with my astromates last saturday with the intention to observe the whole night (nothing about photographs), so I decided to go alt-az and check if I could calibrate my sensors but from the beginning to the end of the night GOTO's were so dead center (like never before)that I forgot completely about sensors.
And I had the 80mm Equinox, the counterweights and the microfocuser on the scope, so it was pretty loaded.
Probably one of my best nights watching the wonders of the cosmos. It's great when electronics work fine.
We even saw Mayall II the globular cluster of Andromeda (by courtesy of the Tom Trusock's Small Wonders guide)
I'll have to mount in the garaje and make a fake alingment an see if it has the calibrate sensors in alt-az.

Regards, Fernando
