Weather has been really awful! During last month there has been two nights with clear sky for longer than 15 minutes.
First one I got the mount polar aligned. I used PAM (polealignmax) which is really easy, fast and precise way to do it. After four runs I had error less than 1 arcsec.
But I noticed that the virtual COM-ports are not so handy to use! When I needed to switch mount control from PAM to MaximDL, I'd had to shut down both programs before I could use the other one. If I tried to disconnect one and connect to another there was an error with the driver. weird...
Last night was the second clear night, but there was a huge storm which cut down the electricity for my observatory too...
