Thanks muchly Mark, Colin, Andy, Dunk. There was a time there when the closer we got, the more and thicker walls were appearing in front of us.
The Apogee guide camera (1/3 inch 1200 pixel CMOS cooled to -10C) was actually pretty good. We never had to search for a guide star, even round Cetus for example, and we could usually get multiple guide stars. For example, last night on the Hamburger, we had ten guide stars, and we can average across them.
Does anyone have a recommendation for a low noise, probably CMOS, possibly cooled 1/3 inch chip x about 1200 pixel guide camera with a robust ASCOM driver that can handle at least 2 metres of USB cable? We're vaguely thinking ZWO or something like it, but don't know where to begin.
