Hi guys--
Just learned a new HTML tag that will allow you to directly download to your
desktop a simple Windows program to download the databases in your LX200--as
long as it's your scope and only for your personal use, it's legal. Go to the
Topical Archive below and select the "LX Databases--Software to Download
(Windows) by John Grylls" link.
The SAO catalog in the LX is only to mag 7 and the galaxy catalog list is one
I've never seen available, i.e., the numbers won't mean much without a catalog
reference. The NGC catalog is of use as a print-out, IMO.
