Hi all, managed to get the scope out on new years eve....as you do...trying out a few different things with the scope (12" SW)..now guiding and capturing in Maxim...I changed the setting for guiding speed in the mount...(EQ6). On longer exposures I have had trouble with star trailing....anyhow, got 40 min of M42...the image, I guess needs work, but what I was most happy with is it's improvement in the guiding...This combo (EQ6 + 12"SW) is difficult to get the balance just so..did I hear someone mention a EQ8 !!
