Have you tried guiding in TSX Pro, is this with direct guide or relays?

Our equipment and conditions are relatively similar Paul, here are my settings that give great results for me: guiding through TSX, protrack on with a large model, and proper polar alignment. Min move of 0.2, max move of 2, aggresivness of 8, no delays after correction and guide exposures anywhere between 6-12 sec depending on filter and star brightness. 50arcsec callibration distance (maybe you could try to recalibrate), guide rate of 0.5 of siderial.

Josh, I am not using TSX for capture or guiding. Though I am guiding via relays. Using a large model myself but that might need some more work since changing the back plate on my scope to the new GSO design. Did a re-calibrate last night; I was thinking something similar myself about calibration being wrong. I don't have the filter problem for guide exposure as I am guiding in front of filters.

0.2 on min move would create problems. I tried higher min and the guiding went all over the place.

Stuff to think about.
