Thanks Ross. Didn't turn up too bad with the noise. It's a faint one.

Why all this trouble? Why don't you use the guider relays out of the QHY5? Is it because the Gemini guider port isn't ST4 compatible?

Correct. My Gemini box is the the very first model and I needed a special adapter to plug the guider directly into the autoguider port.
