Happened whether I used the HC on it's own, or drove it through SkySafari or Skytools3. Was a bit annoying early on, but after I while I got used to it, and simply corrected the alt (and since Skytools showed me where the mount was in relation to the target it wasn't too onerous).
Last night I had my first session with the upgraded 3.36 HC firmware, and lo and behold, the mount now points to where I tell it. No idea whether there are any improvements in EQ mode, but for the time being I'm happy with what they've done!

thanks for the feedback, sounds like it could be a winner - will upgrade next opportunity.
