Hi Frank. I was very interested in your post as I am having very similar problems. I have a 8inch F5 reflector on a HEQ5 mount. I have got everything perfect, even the polar align function reports zero error. But as soon as I move to an area to photograph, the alignment is off and 30 seconds causes slight movement in the stars. Any longer than 30 seconds then forget it. This has been going on for 6 months. So I might try the drift alignment method, if the sky ever gets clear again
