NEQ6 Polar illuminator


Recommended Posts

Just one to look out for and entirely my own fault, I found the solution to my previous post sometime back about a dead polar scope illuminator.

Turns out that after removing the inspection panel that holds the mother board, I replaced it carefully or so I thought. Turns out I trapped the red pos wire to the LED between the mount internal and the face plate!

This had the effect of flattening the insulation to the point that the wire was earthing into the mount body. I have insulated the damaged outer and ensured no more trapped wires. All works fine now and is adjustable in intensity from the handset. Just need a clear night to get out and test it.
