Greg,

I think your comment about TheSkyX and needing to be on a paid subscription is a bit misleading. If you have not updated for years, well, yes, it costs $100 but whatever new features you get are then yours forever. You don't need to pay every year once you update. CCDAutopilot is a bit like this and so is Voyager, etc.

If you are only looking for autofocus and not a full automation suite going the TSX route might just be the easiest option. Going full automation takes a lot of fussing around and learning if focusing is all you really need.

By the way, Focus Max now offers local focusing (i.e., not slewing away) as well. I've not used FM for years but I bet the routine is quite good.
