Hi,
If you made log entries for that scope then it cannot be permanently removed. This is an important feature. Imagine that you accidentally delete a telescope, or change it in an important way, maybe by adding a new finder or eyepiece. You would not want all of your logs to become unusable because that scope no longer exists, nor would you want the updated scope to replace the one you actually used. So the telescope data is stored with your log entry to keep this from happening. If you access this log entry, the telescope may be added back to your list of telescopes, because the log parts of SkyTools depend on it.
But again, the way this is meant to work is via context. If you have your C8 set as the telescope on the planner, telescope chart, real time, etc. (I don't know what edition of SkyTools you are using) then when you create a "quick log entry" it will use that telescope. If you are creating a log entry in another way, say from the Log Browser, then that is not the best way to do it. Take advantage of the context.
