Hi,
So I just tried this on my copy of SkyTools 3, and you are right. It is no longer working properly. In my case, it is always defaulting to the telescope that I have selected on the New Log Defaults dialog, unless I enter "Ask" for it. But in that case it asks rather than take the telescope from the planner as it should. I must have broken this in an update. People won't notice if they always use the default setting,
My suggestion for a work around is to open the New Log Defaults dialog and select your telescope there and then click Save Defaults. I will look into this and fix it in the next update.
And no, that would not delete the scope from your system. But if there were no log entries that depend on the scope you would be able to delete it elsewhere.
