I'm in a similar situation as you Lewis. I've used guidescope for a while and recently put on an OAG.....I saw no improvement at all.
My stars were just as round.
My tracking was just as good.
My finished product didn't change.
I guess I could of stayed with the OAG but for reasons of 'comfortableness' (I swear it's a word) I reverted back to the guidescope......and the fact I liked the look of the smaller/rounder stars in PHD using the guidescope.
I'm with you.....I think as long as the guidescope is securely fixed to the imaging scope then there is no discernible improvement using an OAG
My setup is an F7 imaging scope and 280mm ZWO guidescope
