    Hi Al
    I did include this in the pdf, pg31
    Q: How to measure how far the SCT focuser (primary mirror) moves in one focus knob
    revolution?

    At best it is an approximation, all things considered, I am aware of all the caveats, but I cany also say that sometimes close enough is goof enough

    Regards
    Robert
