Doug, the reason you struggled to get stars sometimes is because your ToUcam isn't SC1 modified.
Makes a hell of a difference.
I STILL use my modified ToUcam for guiding (yep, the very same one I used to image DSO's with) and everywhere I point it the FOV is full of stars.
I know it's a bit late for you to modify yours as you have ordered a QHY5, but more to let others know that a MODIFIED ToUcam is brilliant for guiding.
