Paul... re-read the thread.
I think you will find I said that the optics were probably fine and not the issue because the distortion in the star images was not consistent with this scenario. I put it down to tracking error because the distortion was aligned with the RA axis..... I struggled with this because of the quality of the tracking expected with the mount you are using and that you stated (on your web page) that you were using an off axis guider. Had I known that the off axis guider was on your guide scope and not in the imaging train then mechanical flexure would have been an obvious diagnosis.
My bad.
