    Joves has a great point. One that I forgot to mention.

    I use a small GPS to align the mount for my Celestron. That works really well.

    Rumor has it he has a GPS. Just don't tell ISO he is using it to drive to the Mojave. I'm sure he'll have an opinion.

    Yeah, that was exactly what was keeping me away from astrophotography. I didn't see myself spending thousands for what can be 2-3 shots a year. If this one gets me close - great, otherwise oh well, not much damage.

    Ditto!! Interesting idea. Thanks for keeping us posted.

    Ya know, maybe if one of the great gear rental folks would add a nice setup to the list of goodies that we could rent. mwink.gif
