Nice one Fred. I actually gave this software a whirl. I had a couple of FITS subs take months ago in which I had a vague idea of the RA and DEC based on the target name. The subs themselves had not been plate solved. I ran them through the app. Works as advertised. Only took ~30min of data crunching to get the result. Certainly not the most efficient way of plate solving but when you don't know much about the image i.e. a base RA and DEC to start with it can help. This could potentially be used if you initial pointing was way off and you wanted to sync the scope to begin building a model. Though there are other ways around that.
