Mogens:
There is an error in my response about diffraction focusing. I just
noticed you were using a refractor that doesnt have a spider so no
diffraction spikes casued by the spider. However you could easily make a
diffraction focuser for your refractor it is much more accurate than
highest pixel or hartman mask techniques. I have a spider on my scope so
I autonatically get the benefit.

Sorry for the confusion
