Hi Steve,
I've had Andys crosshair for quite some time now and it is most excellent for polar alighning smile.gif
Instead of waiting for a star to follow the line however, I use the direction buttons to zoom it back and forth along the line and then adjust the mount.
Makes a much quicker job of it smile.gif
