Guys ! Thanks for the encouragement.

Yes I used the Em-200 which is a wonderful mount. It was guided by an FS-60c and STV on the back of the FSQ. I used to use the inbuilt guider in the STL but guidestar selection particularly when I used the Ha filter was so frustrating and time consuming I went to piggy back instead.

Here is a full frame version. It has been compressed in PS down to number 3 in the jpg compression so please don't consider it a fair example of FSQ optical performance. The B86 cropped image is however not compressed much.

The file size 1.5Mb and my server doesn't have a real fast upload speed so pleae be patient or go make a cup of Bonox or both.
