Greg.
yes, thats for sure, SBIG has been mucking around with dual guiding development for ages and it's still not available. Mike Berthon-jones knocked up multiple star, dual guiding (with an OAG and external guide scope) for his SBIG/20" CDK in a matter of days. I sat in front of the OBS PC while it was guiding and it was stunning. 2sec subs from the guide scope, and longer from the OAG for fast, no flex guideing for 1hr subs way over 2m FL. And with 10 or more stars . If an amature can do this, are SBIG and FLI asleep , sheesh, makes you wonder.
