Thanks Rob,

all the attempts I made at calibration last night were in the west (fairly high altitude) North (Near Zenith) East (30 degrees up)

In the west it would calibrate RA but not Dec, in the north it would also do RA but not DEC, in the East it would not move the star at all... so I gave up and just imaged unguided...

I did manage to get 40x4min subs of M42, This says to me that the mount is polar aligned well, and that the balance cant be too far wrong.. So its either got to be software or a connection somewhere....
