I found the same thing. I have a Kenko reticule that's good to j2030 (I think I bought it from hutech but it's been too many years to remember) but found no reticle update. I've emailed kenko but I suspect computer plate solving, like sharpcap and SGP, has rendered them obsolete like the button shoe. If I hear from Kenko I'll update.

Does anyone know where I can buy the updated reticle for the G-11 polar scope? My G-11 mount is 30 years old and works fine, but I've outlived the reticle, which has no alignment marks after 2010.

I agree, for visual use this works fine even for planetary use. For any imaging use it gets you closer and your PA routine will be made easier.??
