I need one for my recently modded webcam. Has anybody any experience of using these with a webcam and K3ccd? As long as I get one that says Parallel port (and not as a lot say Printer port) will it work?

Do I detect a warm indoor control console(optional pole dancers)in the offing?Greg?

I've contolled my ETX that way for some months, if you go that route you will wonder why you spent so much time freezing your whatnots off outside, I entend the same for the Skywatcher , using Starry Night Pro, good luck.

PS If you want to extend the handset cable you will need an RJ45 'Straight Through'cable ,some of them cross over, make sure it is'Straight Through'(Maplins is good) all my cables are 5metre. Cheers Frank
