Hi will do the same ephemeris check on the Android, it should be pretty much the same because the ephemeris code is identical across the platforms. Thanks

Hi Jerry, thanks for your reply. I am using the Android APP. The difference I see is much greater. First I will make the correction of the error cone and I will make the observation again. Rodrigo

Hi Rodrigo, sorry you are having this issue. it sounds like you have your southern hemisphere problem fixed again. I assume you are using the iPadOS version of ExploreStars To make sure the ephemeris

Hi, thanks for your response, I had not considered the cone error. But even so I have a doubt, that I cannot solve it considering the cone error, which although it affects the position in different ar

Here is the excerpt from message #3646 where I mention cone angle Also, you need to correct for another error where your telescope is mated to your mount called Cone Angle. This is a condition where t

Rodrigo I have been modeling the alignment procedure and have arrived at several conclusions. 1. Irregularities can occur in go-to based upon errors in your Dec home position. Similarly errors in cone

Thanks Kent! Helping me twice in one day. Great pic. Good news, it doesn't look like I busted the pin inside. Scott

Hello, I am writing about a deviation that I observe when using the EXOS-2 with Explore Star APP for Android from the southern hemisphere. I set up the station with polar finder with Sigma Octantis, a

Quick favor if anybody has time... I busted my antenna moving my mount. Kent at ES told me where I can order on Amazon. I got to thinking though, what if I busted the pin. Can anybody provide a close

I have been reading everyone's battery suggestions and I thought I would add a bit of data to the mix. I installed a power meter on my PMC-8 Exos2 so that I could see my total current draw from 12 vol

This has been a fun discussion to follow. I appreciate all the input. For my personal situation, I think I am leaning towards Lloyd's suggestion. I am not at the point I want to build something. I am

Friends, If you want to see some off-the-shelf (kits or finished) of battery boxes with meters, connectors, power converters, and so on just search on “Trolling Power Center” in Amazon. If nothing els

Like Steve, I built my astro power supply from a deep cycle marine lead-acid. It is 110 amp-hour I think. There is nothing like just loading up the power supply and going forward with no power worries

I ended up with a Power Tank Pro - a LiFePo4. It was expensive, but the discharge voltage is much flatter over time than Li-ion, and for my setup I haven't found the endurance limit yet. All I know is

Great find, Jim! There’s a relatively recent addition to the battery technology mix using Lithium-Iron-Phosphate chemistry, sometimes listed as LiFePo4 in marketing literature. The benefits are weight
