I have used everything from my eyeball up to my Lodestar now. At the time all did the job, guide.

My first autoguider was a Toucam. Then I used a GStar-EX after trying many duds.

My current system uses a Lodestar and it guides the PMX at about 1 second of arc and mostly less rms. MaximDL is deluded!

The sensitivity and dynamic range of the LodeStar leaves everything else far behind if you bin x2.

I do not even have to monitor what the mount and guiding is doing. It just does it!
