Hi All,

I'm getting a little burned out with hand guiding. What are your recommendations for a "cheap" autoguider?

Thanks,
Andy Bartlett

Hi Andy,

what is cheap?

I would suggest a used AstroCCD, probably 12 bit, like the MX512. Guiding Software could be AstroArt.

That is IMHO the cheapest Autoguider giving a good performance. Laptop must be already owned, of course.

No Laptop? The I would suggest a used ST4 from SBIG.

Cheers
Tom
