I say any exposure ( no pun intended ) is good for our hobby, even if the facts are err slightly skewered. Most ppl out there only think astronomy is the realm of the professional astronomer, not laymen like most of us. Lets unite, not fight chaps!

While on the subject of EQMOD, What's the max length recommended for the TTL to serial cable? I don't have a setup for the laptop on my lawn, and besides keeping it further away under cover means i don't have to scramble to cover mount and laptop when it decides to pee down unexpectedly
