Thanks for the feedback from everybody, I now have bahtinov grabber reinstalled on my new laptop. Martin

But the weblink to Bahtinov grabber on the 'Home' page of APT also doesn't work?

I used Bahtinov grabber software years ago, and it was excellent. I'm setting up a new laptop at the moment for my observatory and want to reload this, but the original website for Bahtinov grabber seems to be dead now. This is the link to the site I used before: http://www.njnoordhoek.com/?p=325 If anybody knows of a new/functional link for this software, please let me know. Thanks, Martin

Truly masterful, an inspiration to all imagers - well done Tom & Olly

An outstanding piece of work - the detail seen in the full screen/annotated version on the website link from Jonas is just amazing. I've never seen M31 before with this level of resolution, simply astounding. Martin

I use Stellarium on my PC to orientate the night sky, and for star hopping - in this software package all the stars are given HIP numbers. However, my Celestron uses Nexstar which wants an SAO number entered to find a star. So at the moment, other than for the more common/brightest stars (which are listed under Nexstar), I cannot instruct guide my telescope to go to other stars that I find on Stellarium since I don't know how to convert a HIP star number to an SAO star number. Does anybody know how do do this?
