Finally got SGP to work!

Thanks all for the help, the last problem was the incorrect ZWO driver.

As a bonus, I watched the scope perform a fully automated plate solved meridian flip.
I am now very happy, and very tired...

Back to M77.
80 of 120s subs, gain 140.
Seeing wasn't the best with patchy cloud about.

When I was framing, i noticed another galaxy right at the edge.
Went outside and rotated the camera 90 degrees.

I haven't even looked to find out which one it is...

Once again, thanks IIS

All this galaxies in one shot. Great field. Getting plate solving to work would be great.

Thank you all for your kind words and valuable encouragement.

At times we all need it!

I did manage another 60 of 180s subs this morning.
Plate solving worked a treat (after I took off the lens cap) :-)

Can't wait to process them...
