Have you tried the plate solving in APT ron , i highly recommend and the goto ++ is better ,takes a bit of setting up but well worth the effort ,did you use the bahtinov aid ron ?

Not used the platesolve or goto yet, I used the bahtinov  grabber last night. I use the SW WiFi for the goto it's very accurate!!
