Well if you want a simple way of getting a polar alignment, (ball park) and you are having some difficulty with the SCP, you could always just 'goto a relatively bright object and then move/adjust your wedge to get the object in the EP. It is simply placing the cart before the horse. If you expect your nexstar to find an object once it is polar aligned, then it follows that once it thinks to is pointing to a known object, moving it till is is so pointing will place its polar axis close to the SCP. If you want it to track for 10 mins, you will need to drift align. I suspect that you have light polution probs that make viewing the SCP next to impossible?
edit cart/horse
