It's interesting. When I was at the recent RTMC, I spoke to Meade about how poor the documentaion and system requirements were for the setting up their GOTO scopes. They all agreed.

I suggested a short set-up video or web clip, or some better way to explain. I was told they get a LOT of questions everyday on set up problems due to documentation - they seem to know the problem, but lack a SIMPLE solution, or willing to take the time to maybe make a short, simple demo videotape on ste-up - maybe someone in the local clubs could or would be interested. I remember years ago, Roger Tuthill made several videotapes on use of the C-8 scopes. They had a little bit of amateur element to them, but they were full of good explanations and pointers. I still have them and they were reasonable price and very useful. Hint! Hint! Celestron and Meade!!! Anyone have good insider connections???

I know, I'm just giving you some good-natured sh- ah,
stuff...;)

I'd love for the presidents of Celestron and Meade to
read that statement! Brent, are you following this?

Ha!
