DC2AC_Drive_Oscillator

An update to a classic - a sine wave sidereal rate (60.164 hz) oscillator/amplifier to drive a 4-6W 120V AC synchronous motor. Designed to fit into the drive housing of the old-style Meade GEM mounts. With addition of a rotary switch and some push buttons it can also do lunar, solar, and E/W (10%) guide/centering. Runs off 10-14 volts.
