Thanks Rob. The EQ8 is no AP however it is performing well for the price and I really like EQMOD so overall I'm happy with what I've got. The SN10 also seems to be working better. I think the mirror cell is still inadequate and may modify that some time. The other weakness is the way the secondary is held in the corrector plate and the difficulty this introduces to collimation. I've been looking at options to get better control over the secondary rotation.

Cheers Marc. I've been doing some experimentation with Startools alongside PI. Probably not strictly correct but I'm happy with the result and some of the Star Tools functions are easier to get a result.

Thanks for the feedback Troy. Do you mean the red colour?

Thanks Rick. I'll take another look at that this weekend. I missed the late night PI workshops this year and I'm pretty rusty on the workflow. Might have to break out Warren's videos again
