However, the stars are stretched in spite of good alignment. The guider reports it is guiding at approx 0.5" to 0.8" (ASIAIR).
So today I tried an Orion 70mm f4.5 guidescope.
After re-calibration the guiding numbers are worse!! 0.8" to 1.2"
Does this make any sense?
I have guide speed at 0.25X. I tried 0.5X and the numbers were still worse.
Any thoughts?

It's your primary shifting. Just use an OAG and you're good to go.
