Hi Keith
I am still looking into this method ,so far so good
I was able to get both Epsilon and Beta to pass through the recticle crosshair and feel it was because my Lat was accurately set from the drift method.
I will next knock my mount of it's Alt setting and see what effect this has when driving the mount in Ra when doing the passes and then make the adjustments to both axis to see if I can successfully get Epsilon and Beta to transit the crosshair as before.
When I first tried this method and had both stars passing through the crosshair there was very little drift in Ra and was just some fine adjustments needed with the jacking bolts to halt the drift.

Cheers
Dave
