    I have STX+Filter7+guider+AOX.
    I have ajusted backfocus for the camera STX.
    My question is:
    Is the backfocus of guider good?Is impossible to adjust.
    I got some difficulties to focus with the guider.
    Do you know this problem?
    Many Thanks
    Georges

    Are you certain you've got the External guide head selected? If you accidentally choose the internal guide chip, and have narrowband filters...

    (Just saying... I did this myself at 3am while testing the STX Guider.)

    What driver sbig (STX+guider+AO) I need to select in The SkyX:
    STX or SBIG with AO(but don't contain STX)?
