Re: [guide-user] Installing Guide 8 on a Windows 10 PC

Remember that UCAC4 is a hugh uncompressed file. Guide locks up if you overload the
data. click on the UCAC4 button in the <Toggle User dataset> Check <Auto>, set
Limiting mag to 15, Enter in <show AT> 0 to 1. That is unless you have a screaming
fast puter:-)
Then adjust the numbers to fit your need

I believe you are loading a field to max mag out to 180 degrees.
