Couple of little things. You dont have to sync. I set the mag to 20, if less then there might not be enough stars to plate solve on (seem to remember 10 didnt work). I assume you made the circular dot pointing map to suit the view the scope can see. Be sure to delete the old Tpoint model before you start a new one (in Sky). I tried some star catalogs (can remember which ones) the GSC works.
