The other scope that really caught my attention was Dan Gray's
computerized 14". Dan has come up with the most nifty over-under drive
plate, where the altitude drive sits on top of a thin flexible plate and
the azimuth drive sits underneath the same plate.   This is a design
that ought to be widely copied.

Are there any images or a description of this drive plate any where so as I
can get an idea of what it looks like and how it functions. Will this
system work with Mel's programme?
