Yes, i have been playing around with the Southern Hemisphere Planisphere
I could possibly be using it incorrect funny enough.
Just had another look at mine.
I take it that you are suppose to be holding it up above your head while you are looking at the stars, not holding it in your hands then looking up ( sorry about that basic question )
Dose it really matter if the Dobsonian is pointing North or South when the unit is turned on? as i am thinking it would just be using your initial coordinates that you put in to start with then use that against the first star, ( sorry i know that has been cover before, just thought i would ask)

I am sure it is something very simple, I am just going to have to learn more about the stars first i am thinking.
Thanks.
