Those test shots show stars with a good profile, fine tuning the settings in Ascom will help. Helps to run PEC also, let it train and then leave it on, this means PHD doesnt need to do as much.

Keep it up, we should start a PHD / Toucam guiding club.

Thanks Chris,
Yeh a bit more work to go in fine tuning etc but things are moving along ok. The OTA I'm using is about twenty five years old, in very good condition mind you but a nice new one with coma correction would be nice.

Malcolm,
That old scope I've had since my target shooting days for checking target hits, it comes in handy every now and then. I'll have my new guide scope ready to go soon though, a bit more compact.

You seem to be one step ahead of me and asking the questions I need answers to so I'll just follow you around and all the info just pops up

Nico.
