[sooty]

I'm unable to find any links to Astro Baby's tutorials! Just keeps coming up,Error 404,page not found.

I followed it a few years ago,and was happy with my polar alignment,have since re-located my mount,

and not 100% sure how i did it. My mount is a HEQ5 Pro Synscan.

Thanks in advance.

On http://www.astro-baby.com/  I get this:

Error #1500

The page you requested is temporarily unavailable. Please try again.
 

It's either down for maintenance or possibly they need to renew the license subscription - it's easy to overlook for many sites.

If you have an ios device (iphone/ipad) you can try my Polar Scope Align app, which has a method for the Classic skywatcher reticle that makes polar alignment faster and more accurate.

But what happened to Astro Baby, is she OK?
