Hi, I am having issues with my mount . Tracking arbitrarily stops working. Until a few months ago it was working perfectly. It will restart immediately I click on the tracking icon ( HEQMod) but I am unable to see why this is happening. It makes photography pretty well impossible An error comes up on PHD, unable to connect with RA. Thought initially it might be a software conflict so a new laptop with a complete new installation of everything. ASCOM, PHD, HQmod, NINA I have ordered a new power cable but if it were a bad connection then why would it start immediately on clicking the tracking icon in HQMod ? My son who is much more experienced than I am is equally baffled. Has anyone had any experience of this or suggestions
