PST^3

Posted By Steve Sands
Hi Tom,

Thank you for sharing your pictures of the PST setup! Was this ordered directly from iOptron? How long did it take to receive it after the order was placed?

When I read about this new cube mount, my PST was the first thing I thought of! I have tried various arrangements and currently use the TV Tele-Pod head on a Bogen tripod. The cube will allow for constant tracking which would be great for using an electronic eyepiece with a monitor. I see on their website that they also make an equatorial/ alt-az combination version (and GPS!) which might be worth considering. For what I would be using the cube for I wouldn't care all that much about the data base objects.

Maybe it is too large? Try scaling it down.

Where do I leave feedback?

Posted By Steve Sands
Gert:

To leave a rating for someone who has replied to your ad, or you to theirs, assuming this deal was actually completed (by the AM Terms of Service only completed transactions are to be rated):

1. On the left margin of your screen (while signed into AstroMart) scroll down and select ACCOUNT MENU.

2. Then scroll down to the RATINGS BOX.

3. Within the RATINGS box select UNUSED RATINGS.

All available rating tickets will be located under UNUSED RATINGS. If what you are looking for is not there, there are probable reasons for that: 1. The ad is over 30 days old 2. One of the two of you is an AM "Dealer" (dealers can not be rated through this system) ....among possible other reasons.

Hope this helps! shocked

Question concerning Denk

Posted By Steve Sands
Hi Ernest,

I would pose this question to Russ Lederman at Denkmeier. He knows these systems inside and out and could best answer your question. Anytime I have sent him a query he has been prompt to respond and quite helpful!

On their website there is a CONTACT US tab. In addition to emailing, I have also called and spoken directly with him

Hope this helps!
