Sorry, the pics did not upload in order.

.44"? jumped to .49"
.41"? jumped to .52"
Last picture guiding at .40" a goal I think is possible.
Seeing was average, checked and I was just on the edge of the jet stream.
Focal length is at 805mm with an OAG.
Know I'm just getting picky now but I am amazed at what this mount is capable of.?
I was between 2 garages, on grass with tripod legs almost fully extended to see over them, to get PA and then slew to DEC 0 for PHD2 GA run and a PEMPro run.
Have a new RA worm on order because I noticed a nick right in the center of the worm that was causing a slight binding when meshed.
Under a magnifying glass I used 2500 grit sandpaper to fix a bulge caused by it but it's still noticeable.?
Then I looked through the magnifying glass and saw it was a little rough, along with the whole worm.
Took some ultra fine automotive final mirror polish on a buffing wheel and polished the worm all around for a few seconds.
Will replace that repaired worm with the new one when it comes and check the results.
The nick in the worm seems to be guided out by PEC.
I'm wondering if polishing the worm had any affect in getting the results I'm seeing?
Might have to order a few worms and run some experiments.
