Re: [TenTec] Need more help on RIT/XIT

[John Huffman <hjohnc@gmail.com>]

I doubt if your pod will ever fail.

My RIT/XIT rarely works.  Lately, I've been using the N4PY software to 
control the RIT/XIT.  That always works. 

I also programmed a user control on my DXLabs Commander to control the 
RIT when I'm not using the N4PY software.  The Commander controlled RIT 
always works.
I would assume that the pod, like computer commands, completely bypasses 
the encoder and its associated components.
