Re: ascom for GUIDE?

Hi Richard,
Yes, I'm using the Generic LX-200 driver, as that is what is needed
for my Bartels driven mount. If you don't have the commercial
products ACP or Maxim you can use POTH (Plain Old Telescope Hub)that
comes with the latest ASCOM version, as that has a Nudge pad. Give it
a try ... it should work with Starry Night.
