It could be they're using a font family that your system doesn't support/have, so your system is substituting a very bad replacement "guess". and another one here: A Question for the "huge font" people: are *all* the messages arriving that way, or only some of them? If "only some", then it's the sender's system adding font information that's not be processed by your system in a "friendly" way. As an experiment, i'm making everything except the first line of this replay one loooooonnnngggg response, instead of my usual habit of including line breaks (such as the one used after the "#410)" above). you have multiple "choices": using the web page's 'reply' box (that's how i'm writing this one), or perhaps as a "reply" in your own email program (if you're receiving the feed as email, instead of visiting the website).

Some of the reasons for seeing "inconvenient" formatting may be due to how the author writes their message.

I'm not seeing huge fonts, but some postings do have a horizontal scroll bar (for example: Julian's message #410). ("Do not try to fix something that is not broken") have fun deciding. then there is no reason to change the firmware.
#MEADE AUTOSTAR II UPDATE UPDATE#
(you can always use StarPatch to return to 4.2g) If you HAVE been using our patch kit, then i would recommend staying with 4.2g (patched), but do the update (with StarPatch) to fix the GPS system. If you have NOT been using our patch kit before now, then you will probably be happy with 4.2l. So: should you update to 4.2l? You will have to decide. The other bits were not an improvement, so we decided to simply keep the patch kit correct for 4.2g (it takes quite a bit of work to create the kit for a new version, and 4.2l wasn't worth it). 4.2l changed some other bits of the firmware. which had bad enough bugs that they issued 4.2l (L) soon after. We (Andrew, Chris and a small dash of me) modified our patch kit to fix that. When the GPS system "rolled over" their week-count, it broke the Autostar's ability to get the correct Date from the satellites. good luck -dickĤ.2g was still the "current" version until April 2019.
#MEADE AUTOSTAR II UPDATE INSTALL#
Once you install a USB-to-serial adapter on your PC, it will appear as a COM port in Windows.
#MEADE AUTOSTAR II UPDATE SERIAL#
The signal voltages (etc) the telescope expects are serial RS232. You will need a USB-to-serial adapter (like the Keyspan USA-19HS) since the telescope does not have a USB socket.

3) Can USB be used with the PC to download it, or only Com por? If you only wanted to update a few (such as the ISS (Zarya) or a specific comet), you can do that directly by typing them in on the Autostar's keypad (which is how i do it). However, if you wanted to update the Comets, Asteroids, Satellites data, then you would have to deal with those. *We should pause and ask: WHY are you (re)loading your firmware? 2) Wouldn't I have to load anything else? If you have truly broken memory, the download would have problems. So if your current instruction and original database memory is corrupted, it would attempt to "fix" it. ((the photo doesn't show the top of the list)) If you have none of the options checked, it would overwrite your current copy of 4.2g with a copy of 4.2g. If you tell StarPatch to push it to the telescope, it will replace your current version with a slightly modified version (if you have any of the option tick-boxes checked).
