If I can get 5min guided subframes without trailing, I’m set to image.
If I could get 5min unguided subframes, I might faint.
The next step is to image for a couple more nights (I think I have about
a week left before the moon is irritatingly bright), and then tear apart
the worms and do the de-grease/re-grease thing. If I can’t get the mount
running right after an oil change, I may have to start gnashing my teeth
and tearing my hair.

What do you have your axes set to on the tracking graph? My “max X” was
0.6. I think mine was in pixels?
