Well if nothing else at least you a work around.
Do you have to do an alignment at the start anyway? What I mean is, can you just turn the mount on, and push it to 5128 instead, find it with the finder and go from there. This eliminates the alignment phase, something else to consider.
As well, you talk about guiding in two different areas, do you calibrate the guider each time, or do you rely on the brain within Maxim to do this? If so, do you have the Observatory window connected? Or am I barking up the wrong tree here?
Gary.
