I'm Back....

Hello to all the good people at ASO. Its been a long time since I've been here. I've been consumed with other things that life throws your way for awhile and have had zero time for Astronomy. But things are calm now and its time to break out the scope and return to the star filled skies. I have missed it here.

Grizz,
Glad to have you back, you sure have been missed around here.
Hope everything is going good now and you can enjoy that scope once again

Thanks Ron!
I think my scope is mad at me. I set it up yesterday and...well it just went crazy. Wild slews, stalled motors, no movement in RA. Then I tried a RESET and same things happened. I will try and reload firmware (4.2g) and see what happens. Thats what I get for letting it sit so long.

Grizz,
I'd like to echo Ron's comments! You're not the only 'regular' who's been MIA!
I well know your frustration with your scope, mine sat in storage for quite some time before we found a new house. I'm sure the two will get reacquainted shortly and get all your differences worked out just fine!
