Thanks guys for the thoughts.
The attachment is the raw data. The data is only smoothed and not applied. The camera was at around 9.9 degrees and within tolerance fro PE collection. Apparently the PE is within spec. I was wrong in that I was looking at the RAW which was sliding away down hill due to the PA of the mount. Still the main problem here is that the PEC is not being applied and the guiding remains crap at best in the RA. I will check to see if PEC is worse or better but I took this data on Canopus when it was just coming to culmination and the scope was pointed in the East.
Yes Ernie I have the latest daily build. Ernie the Raw on the ME is a freak and does not have PEC applied. It is from top to bottom 1.8 seconds. Meaning 0.9 peak to peak. I don't know why it is that good but I am not going to mess with something that works. It guides like a demon without any PEC or Protrack applied. So it is an unfair comparison.
