ETX 70 - new users

As a recent purchaser of etx 70 , compliments on Lidl, i have been trying to get familiar with the operations of the scope and software. Not easy completely. Assuming there are other "amatuer" persons and civilians in similar situation i make this post to share progress - or lack of it. I dont have the time to dedicate to making progress and improving that i would like to have. Anybody get any good and relevant info that save us all time etc - pls post.

In addition www.irishastronomy.org/boards/viewtopic.php?t=1219

Please add questions (preferably with answers!) to that thread and I'll update the main post. Hopefully we can flatten the learning curve for people with this scope in future!

Weasners web site is probably the best reference online for the ETX.
