Haven't really had a chance to analyse the results, but the guiding graph was certainly smooth, albeit on a fairly high end mount at only 625mm focal length. I will endeavour to report back after trying it with my 10inch RC at 1800mm.
Eden - how does one guide in the near IR?

Hi David,
Near-IR guiding is done using an On-Axis Guider (ONAG). There are a few threads floating about on the forum here which discuss it in detail.
Multi-star guiding looks to be another promising addition to the guiding toolbox. I have been testing a developer build of OpenPHD with multi-star guiding support. It's still a bit raw, but there is a improvement over single star guiding albeit with a couple of caveats.
