Thanks Paul,
Its your images in particular that have made me want to implement an AO.
I have been finding out more about it. It seems an AOX can be made to work with a MMOAG and an ST7XME or ST8XME guide chip as the guider in the MMOAG. I wonder about the weight and the space requirements of that setup though. An ST7XME might be pretty heavy as a guider. I wonder if it can be stripped down to bare necessity?
