I have a bit of an update tonight..I autoguided for a while on a random target in Scorpius and think-have yet to check the log-that it was reasonabily ok..but PHD crashed-the first time this has ever happened to me. Restarted and ran for 30 to 40 minutes and it looked OK (will check the log tomorrow).
I then tried on a random target in the SMC-I wasnt imaging you understand , just testing autoguiding-and it failed again!
This is not making any sense
