I'm using USNOA2. I always get confused on the different ones, but I need more stars. The 8gig of USNOA2 doesn't seem to be enough, TheSky sometimes doesn't show a star in the FOV when in fact there is. More common for the guide chip.
Orchistrate - not even worth a 2 second look from what I can see. I have it, came with TheSky6 professional edition. From the time I've spent trying to work it out, it appears extremely limited and to have low capability together with clumsy usability - it took me quite a while to create a relatively simple script. It definitely doesn't support any concept of sync/matching a star field, every image must be individual specified and delays specified seperate to the images, etc.
I'm thinking about CCD Commander, that looks very capable. It relies on TheSky & CCDSoft also, but that's good for me.
Roger.
