Are you doing 15 minute exposures?

The dither distances and settling look fine from a PHD perspective, although I can see a big spike in guidestar SNR roughly every 900 seconds

I have not used the log before but I think this is the dither causing issue. I then restarted the sequence by turning dither off.
