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

Hi

I have finally complete the LX-200 scope control system with the Astronomy
Control Panel (ACP) which works excellently.

I am using a GPS to update the computer clock and locate the observatory
position. This data in turn is used to update the LX-200 vis ACP control.

Now the question: What positional datum do I use for GPS position? (WGS-84)
or what?

Thanks in advance

Best regards

John

Headley Observatory, Hants. England

N 51 07.042' W 000 49.213'
