What sort of issues are you having with your guiding ? What hardware\software are you using ?
It took me a while to figure out how to get mine to play ball but now it's almost 'Point the scope' & 'Pick a star' simple.

They ARE lovely shots ...
Thanks very much! Glad you liked them.

my main problem is that I don't have any guiding, my mount technology is still back in the dark ages.

All I have is a stepper driving the RA roller on my horse shoe mount. Not sure if water has got in the stepper driver circuit boards and mucked up the speed or if my PA has gone out of whack. It has me puzzled, generally when I do drift aligning I can get the PA and tracking pretty good but the few nights I have spent on it lately haven't helped.

Must be time to build a new mount

Cheers
Jo
