Mx pec

I am more and more convinced that the fix that SB gave us earlier this year for SkyX and MX PE corrected the rotation error for the Southern Hemisphere but that an issue with the phase of the correction remains.

I can produce reasonably consistent uncorrected PE curves but after correction the residual error curves are far from consistent and mostly worse.
(This is not related to the Pointing West button and am using latest build).

I have tried on several nights with numerous runs and I always come to the same conclusion to leave PEC off.

Has anyone in the Southern Hemisphere produced a repeatable residual error with an MX?

1. Using SkyX
2. Using PEMPRO

That is, recorded the PE, applied PEC, run a corrected log and found the residual PE to be less than before and below 1 arc sec peak to peak.
And then were able to repeat the whole process with a similar result.

Thanks

Kim
