Hi Milton
Yes replacing the grease and readjusting the gears is the best one can
do. Had an EQ5 recently that I got to work properly after this
treatment. However we do not get below 30 here in Switzerland at least
not in the past few years. ;-)
Just came of the phone with my Uncle that lives in Ontario and he also
told me about the 30 below and strong winds.... seems unreal to me.
BTW here is the result of M45 before the fog rolled in:

Now I am hoping for a change to catch Saturn in its current ring
position. So far fog and clowds made this impossible over the last
four weeks. :-(

Chris
