Last night I entered a telescope in VPHOT. I named it Sabine Observatory. Well, I didn't do it right and did another one (Sabine Obs-2) because it wouldn't let me edit or delete the first one.
Can anybody help me?
Darrell:
You had common telescope (at bottom) checked. You should actually not be able to do this but there is a bug.
As admin, I deleted this scope.
Set one up again BUT make sure common scope is not checked.

Hi Ken,
I think I'm having the same issue. I added a new scope called BGO, which is now greyed out & I can't edit it.
But there isn't any checkbox to select/ deselect common telescope on the 'Create new Telescope Setup' page. Please let me know how I can share a screenshot of the page, as it seems I can't attach a image/ file to this post for some reason.

Divye,
Did you copy another existing common scope to create your own scope?
Email me at kenmenstar@gmail.com to include an attachment.

Thanks for sharing your email address, Ken!
I shared the details with you.
And no, I clicked 'Create a New Telescope Profile' without checking the option 'Create new by copying'.
Regards,
Divye
