PHD2 - Star selection with high SNR/Saturated

[souls33k3r]

Hi All,

I was wondering if anyone knew a way for PHD2 to auto-select star with a high SNR value (preferably one that is saturated).

My kit behaves well for a star that is saturated so when using SGP kicks in the instance of PHD2 and it gets the chance to auto select a star i deliberately select a star that is saturated. If i do this my total RMS numbers are good otherwise they're all over the shop. 

I'm using QHY5L-ii mono as a guidecam.

Thanks in advance

You should post your query on the Open PHD Guiding Google forum.The PHD2 developers will answer.

(But they will also probably explain what you're doing wrong if you only get good guiding on saturated stars........:-> )
