hi guys, thanks for the comments.
Lewis i'm doing two star plus polar alignment, exactly the same as a couple of months ago which I could nab good enough after a few alignment iterations perhaps took 5-8mins to obtain 30 minute subs @ FL1200mm.
the difference I think is that since dec clutch lever has slipped no matter how I correct for it, the synscan knows I corrected it and accounts for the change I introduce but it couldn't detect the original mechanical slip/error.
I agree on not moving both, I did prefer the older version (3.35?) as you could be way off and it would zero in nicely as it required one axis at a time. 3.36 you need to be close in setting up to start with as when you adjust bolts it moves both axis not just one.
going to try again tonight perhaps being unplugged for a day has made some difference
