Hi Glen,
It's frustrating not being able to find a suitable star to guide with.
Auto-guiding is not a lazy solution, it's generally considered to be an essential part of the process if you want to take long exposures of DSO's.
With respect to not being able to find a star with sufficient mass -- were you getting errors from PHD2 about the star being lost, or was it flashing up errors about the mass of the star? What exposure time are you using on your auto-guiding camera?
