I also learnt today that PHD (that's what I use for guiding), likes to have a little polar error....don't ask me why, so I will still use WCS, but wont go below an error of between 50-100 and see.....I don't bother with WCS in DEC - just do a quick CCD Drift align in DEC.....
Mind you, I am a newbie in this stuff - my images are not very good, but happy to share my experiences such as they are....

Would it be possible to write a WCS for dummies as I find the pdf with the program to be alittle odd in places especially for the Southern Hemisphere.
