Hi. I have a similar problem and all I can get is the grey lines which you picture shows before you solved your focus problem. My problem is that no matter how far I rack in or out the scope, nothing changes and I do not get that lovely dark image on the screen. Any advice would be most appreciated. John

Tried de-lensed barlow. Success !! Distance is around 60cm so all good. Many thanks for your help.

Thanks guys for all your good advice. I will give it a try.

I have an Orion Starshoot Auto-Guider attached to a Skywatcher Startravel 80 scope as a a guide-scope. I use it with PHD2 guiding software but the problem is I fall short of a proper focus on the inward travel of the focuser. Tried removing the diagonal to get more inwards travel but you cannot get a focus on either the camera or the eyepiece without the diagonal inserted. Any advice would be appreciated.
