Hi,

Synscan have a V3.28 Beta firmware upgrade on their site

http://www.skywatcher.com/swtinc/cus...1=1&class2=101

which apparently does the procedure I have been trying to perfect. Aha Essentially this involves doing a 2-star alignment, then slewing to a star near the meridian, and using the Alt-Az adjustments to centre it.

The Celestron All-Star feature is said to be the same.

Serendipity. Now to try it.

Cheers
