re guide scope

Ok Paul,

That sounds good,you mention 'image brightness settings',does that mean you can adjust a setting in the auto guider for different length scopes?

My friend had a megrez 66 at the time with his Orion auto guider,we just put in on my Vixen ED 81 F 7.7,and we had a devil of a time trying to find a guide star (we were under a very dark sky),once we found a star all went well.

I heard someone else mention they had issues with longer focal lengths.

But with what you say with yourself having no issues on F 8 Tak,may be its just a matter of learning to use adjustment settings.

I will buy Auto Guider first and play around with it on ED 81

thanks for advice,Chris
