PEC with SkyX

Paul,
Can you expand on the point about the brightness of the star used for PEC with SkyX? I still have been unable to get this to work. Everything appears to work correctly but the residual PE is not repeatable nor better than the original. Camera angle is almost perfect and "pointing west" correctly set, if it is not correct the PE is definitely worse.

Thanks
Kim

With the PE just make sure your camera is close to 0 or north. And using a nice brightish star too if you are using the skyX PE system. I found it does not work well with stars over mag 8.
