Very nice and well done.
Was this cropped at all?

Those are great. I am glad to see you are also using an EQ6 with an MTS-3SDI.
I have a question: have you tried to train your PEC with a webcam through lx200 commands? If so did it work?
I have tried via others example and have not been able to get my guiding program to talk to the mts after pec training has started.
Also what modifications have you made to your eq6 other than the MTS any motor or gear changes.
I changed my gears with the Conrad ones and am able to manually train the PEC to +-3 arcsec.
Thanks
Eric

Wonderful shot Radek, congrats! 8)
