Motor box cable
Thanks, Mark, I found them on Digikey. They have several of them and are a bit confusing too. Still looking at specs in detail. Prasad

Motor box cable

OnStep time incorrect
Howard Initially, I got confused but then it made sense. For example, we are in the Eastern Time Zone and our time is -5 hours from UTC. In other words, to get UTC we need to add 5 hours to our local

Losmandy G11 mounts are so well made and sturdy that they can easily outlast you (unless of course, someone has wrecked it, which BTW, is not easy). I bought one a couple of years ago only to realize
