While you're here, how about checking out the Astronomy Book List ?

Hello,
I have something that I don't understand with my lx 200:
My azimuth axis has a little motion in locked position, this movement
appears
when I touch slightly my telescope, it moves around azimuth axis for a few
minutes of arc ( noticeable in the field of view of an eyepiece).
This seems to be a little movement but this is a problem for
astrophotography,
a little wind makes my telescope moving.
This movement appears when the telescope is pointing in south direction, in
west
or east directions there are no movement at all.

Is there any way to solve this problem ?
Thank you.

Dan.
