SGP thinks time to meridian flip is -3:59:31 and it is not changing

Chris,
I posted the log and sgf along with a few observations that might be useful. I just got the mount and the manual does not reveal access to a log, which I have no doubt it keeps internally. I'll ask around and see if it or Per's driver leave any log files behind. In any case, as you can see the mount is happily tracking in RA taking a long series of ten minute subs and then out of the blue the hour angle sgp uses to decide whether to flip jumps up from -39+ to almost 60 -- a great leap forward of almost 100˚ or 6.66 hours! I don't know where SGP gets that HA, but it is most definitely wrong because the mount reported it was where it should be and I went outside and checked and it was still happily tracking on the west side of the mount with approximately another 2.5 hours to the point where it would be ready to flip.
