Beautiful work! Thank you for taking the time to document everything you

Hi all,

I just finished a first draft of a page that will hopefully help a lot of
people out when it comes to the repair of the infamous 'motor runaway' and
'dead motor' problems on the LX200. It's a bit wordy, but perhaps it can be

of some help to people that don't want to have to send their units in for
the
$200 repair. I hope so. I also hope that it puts a bit of a new twist on
solving the problems.

It can be directly accessed at: <http://members.aol.com/ccdastro/decfix.htm>

Tomorrow I'll put a permanent link to it from my personal page.

Comments and suggestions are welcome.

For what it's worth.
