Rather, I would do all the alignment and synchronisation through the software, not the handset. If you are controlling the mount via the laptop and EQMOD you don't need the handset alignment.

I always like typing out my days onto my blog, than a diary. Typing always makes me think faster and I'm able to spit out more thoughts :p Do you take any snap shots of the stars? Nice story.

I love looking at this sort of stuff and I'm definately going to put your pic at the top as my background on my Toshiba Satellite Laptop...if my battery doesn't die in the process. Good luck and keep your eyes to the sky. This is really cool.

I love astronomy but I haven't had any chance looking through a telescope. Your equipment is awesome, hope I have one like it. I would love to look at the stars and the constellation.

Great post, keep em coming. Wow the C6-SGT looks like a decent bit of equipment, might have to invest in that.

I've used different telescopes in the past, but none seem to be of a quality high enough to get some clear views of the sky. So the C6-SGT is pretty good, according to you? I would love to know what I should buy, to be honest. It doesn't matter if it's really expensive or not. Thanks for your reply! Great story!

It would be something that I would love to show my children, especially my daughter who is really interested in astronomy.
