Ok Craig didnt have anything to suggest but that's because the problem turned out not to be with the very wonderful PHD software but with a faulty handcontroller-Alex (WSAAG) came along home tonight and very kindly lent me his hand controller -and my mount autoguided just fine
so I'm up for $250 for a new hand controller-but hopefully my guiding issues will be resolved with this
frankly I have been looking at other mounts -including the Losmandy G8 and the Vixen SXD-and browsing yahoo user groups and there is no such thing it appears as a truly reliable mount that will just do the job out of the box--even these high end mounts seem to have their share of issues and seem extremely finicky
so I a replacement hand controller does the job I will reckon I am well out of the bunker ..fingers and toes crossed of course
