Exos 2 vs eq6r-pro
Chuck That’s interesting. Assuming the same guide scope and camera I wouldn’t expect a difference for the exos2 at 102 scope vs the 61. Maybe with a very heavy payload but at 15# not so much. You migh

Bear Stellarium has been reported to have an issue with the ascom 6.5. Sounds like you should stick with 6.4 or maybe 6.5 but using Poth. Works fine with 6.4 Wes

Another newbie question on alignment
