I found some IIS previous threads on Cone error.....

No need to further the discussion....

Has anyone successfully tried the ConeSharp software?

I'd be interested to hear your feedback. Did it improve your GOTO?

Just a thought , have you tried disconnecting EQMOD and plugging in your Synscan handcontroller to see if you get a similar alignment error on the same reference star from the same home / park position

Martin,
No, never tried that.
My home position is Custom - OTA horizontal and I'm not sure a suitable first target would be available for GOTO with the Synscan???
If pain persists I'll think more seriously about this option.
