Hi Larry,

thanks for the information.

I have everything set as you describe and I can find, for example, Abell
1656 by RA and DEC and it is visible as I zoom in, but Guide does not
find it when I enter it in GoTo/Object Name.

I tried A 1656, Abell 1656, Abell1656 with no luck. I get a "NOT A VALID
OBJECT" error.

If I enter A1656 (no spaces) Guide takes me to another part of the sky,
probably a star catalog designation...
