Thanks for the link, Adam, and the extra clarification, Paul. I had already read this tutorial and understood the essence, despite the details you referred to. On the one occasion I tried it, it wasn't all that much quicker for me than my usual visual drifting with a star, 12mm reticle eyepiece and 2.5x barlow. Maybe the seeing was really off but the graph was going all over the place and it took some time to see a clear drift up or down - there were so many ups and downs. Have you been saying that K3CCD works more efficiently than this PHD method?

Do you mean adjusting elevation and azimuth?
