Ah well that would explain it. I can't help you re the focusing, I just draw a square around a star in the field, it enlarges with a close up in a new box and I press the in-out focus buttons while watching the star on the screen and just make it as small as I can, quick and simple but means you need to be with, or at least controlling, the scope of course...
