1, how would describe your current guiding?
- are you not able to guide, and looking for basic setup
- you are guiding, but you have poor results
- you are guiding, but not sure your results are good (or good enough)
- guiding just fine, but looking for added tips
?
2. what is it you hope to get out of this session?

1. My guiding seems to be excellent to me, and my needs.
But I'm always interested in trying to learn more, or gather tips from others.
Numbers and logs don't do a lot for me. But I can usually learn something from sitting in.

2. Maybe a few tips and tricks I don't already know, or to gather some knowledge I missed along my way.

I would like to request more attention be paid to the chat feature of these sessions. Not being on video, I felt the chat fed questions were overlooked.

If I may, I did find two PHD videos that got me up and running when I was trying to get a grip on PHD. After going through the 2 of them, and dialing in the settings initially, I was up and running. Push Here Dummy is not nearly as simple as many would be lead to believe. So I have shared the video's that helped me numerous times over the years, with appreciative feedback often.
?PHD Basics Part #1??https://youtu.be/PRY2jN3xTBQ
?PHD Basics Part #2??

After these, I was able to twiddle and tweak in settings that worked great for me, and my long exposure Astro Imaging.
I transitioned from my first mount (A real POS) to my GM811G seamlessly. My Losmandy mount works rock solid for me.
