Re: [APML] Digital setting circles for G11

["mike and dianna" <galaxy@ncweb.com>]

Hi Chris

For whats its worth, I had Scotts digital setting circles on my G-11 but
found it was more trouble than it was worth so I sold it. As I'm sure people
do like them, And I bet there are alot, I just assume to use the good ole
finder and star charts. For me it was faster and easier as well as keeping a
sharp eye. I did keep the encoders mounted just in case I ever do want to
run a program like Mel Bartels scope control, which is very good IMHO.
I am by no means knocking Scotts product or digital setting circles in
general, their just not for me.

Just thought I'd throw my 2cents in from a G-11 user who has removed DSC.

Sincerely,
Mike  Leitch
