Hmmm, thanks Peter, that makes quite a lot of sense....!
I find that the long tube BD200N / Orion Miniguidescope / HEQ5 Pro combination behaves very differently depending on the position it is pointing, which is why I have to relearn PHD for each target. Then, as you say, even with a flat line PHD graph, I get rubbish results with my stars.
I am having a look at the slimline Orion OAG as an option for my rig.
Thanks for the info, hopefully this could sort it out.
