My guide camera gamma is normally on 95%.
The slider doesn't change the camera gamma at all.
slide the bottom slider to the left till you can see the picture appear, this is in the main PhD window.
This slider is there so humans can see stars and pick one for guiding
Last night I also found the sweet spot to be 1/4 from the left as well. Also I do not have a black background it can discriminate stars well at that point.

It is interesting that PHD come with darks like it does but EQAlign dark-frame blacken the background very well and I only see the stars.
I have not successfully got EQAlign to guide well for me as yet but just the dark frame feature on EQAlign is so much better.
