Subject: Tracking & guiding


I think next time I'm attempting to image & guide I'll put the gear on the scope & mount, re-balance & do my alignments through the camera. The DSLR has a sufficiently wide field with the f6.3 reducer to find things fairly easily. 

In the meantime I'll experiment with my alignments & try to refine them with an eye to getting Go To's accurate..

The thing is that I've got a lot to learn about guiding in particular- advice that people on such groups as the Stark one for instance have pretty well on tap..!
