Version 1.5 of PHD - with DEC over-correction features

I noticed tonight - after my imaging run - that a new release of PDH verison 1.5 is available from www.stark-labs.com

http://www.stark-labs.com/downloads_...PHDGuiding.zip

It was relased 17 April actually - I only check for s/w upgrades every 2 months or so. The main idea behind this release seems to be imrpovements in algorithms to prevent over compensation in DEC corrections.

Thanks - I'll download this and install it on the Notebook for when I next use the guide scope.

Cheers

Well due to clouds I've only had a slight play with this. My furst run for a 400 sec picture of Eta Carina was washed out - but the stars look very round. I get the feeling this is working pretty well - especially if there is too much backlash in the Dec gears plus some slight polar mis-alignment.
