The StarTech's were not too badly priced on Amazon (read about $120) and work very well.

As a result the most software that will run the camera is now stable and the maximum frame rates have increased significantly.

If the weather co-operates I'll likely give the 183C a bit more of a workout next new moon...we shall see!

thanks for the cable tip - have been having issues with my qhy163m - but thought it was drivers... and a lovely lagoon, esp for such short exposure time
