Thanks Rick, should it have a slewing speed as well as a tracking speed though?

spendrey

Actually, it looks like there is no fast slewing rate as this is not a goto scope, so it's the old manual method for me then!
That's fine I just wanted to make sure I was using it to it's full potential.
Now all I need is a clear night!
Thanks for all your help.

Don't worry about those types of questions, I tend to ask some real howlers from time to time :smile:

Rick

Slewing speeds do seem to be quoted in terms of normal tracking speed, for some reason. Dunno why.
