Mark;


Ever think of unzipping it (just double click to get the BOM Archiver to uncompress it) on a Mac and then transferring the resulting files to your PC?

I`m having trouble with it on the PC. I`ve downloaded the file OK but  

it will only open with WinRAR  & my free trial of that has finished. I  

have 7-Zip which is free but it dosen`t seem to recognise the file.  

Originally it was directing me on the net to a program called EZM to  

open the firmware but I`ve lost this in going to 7-zip. As usual with  

PC stuff I find I`m sent up hill & down dale & am now tired of it.  

I`ve just had a bout at the scope where I seemingly got a good polar  

alignment-(display align is saying I`m only 6 arc seconds off in Azm &  

2 arc seconds off in Alt) but go-to`s are pretty crappy. Did have a  

look at Mars once I played around trying to locate it. So I`m pretty  

tired now & will commence again later..I guess if I had any spare  

credit I could pay for WinRAR..! Hope you guys with your Bootcamp have  

more success..
