Thanks everyone.
Greg, I have no tracking with the new mount at the moment. So 10 seconds is it for now. I bought a new power supply, so the dual axis motors do work when I use the paddle, but I can't work out how to get it to track on its own.
Thanks for the hint on ISO expansion.
I've been looking at fringe killers on the net, Andrews has a 2" Ba'ader for $179.
Alex, I popped the Gstar into the scope, and was blinded by the brightness of M42. I had to knock the intergration time right down. Amazing.
