Not much observing with wind and clouds, but more importantly the ServoCAT system was being installed. The stainless steel Altitude Cable was anchored to the flying Alt Bearing tip.

The other end would be wrapped around the motor spool and then connect to the seriously spring-loaded clamp to take up all slack!

Eventually two, larger springs were used but here is the original equipment spring that came with the purchase of ServoCAT!
