Alignmaster question

I have trouble when entering the correct time in Alignmaster. I enter +10 from UTC but the stars that appear in the list are not in the sky or are closer to the horizon. Has anyone had this issue before?

Also, I remember someone on here uploaded a text file with updated stars for the program but can't seem to find it. Does anyone have a link to it?

Thanks!
Stefan.

Yep that was correct.

Did you put +10 with the time though? I read somewhere that you keep it as 0.

Thanks!

I updated the text file. I am getting one really good star but the second star is always at the horizon or below!

Anyone having the same issue?

Pretty sure you can open up that text file and add your own stars to suit your observing site

Not too sure what information to enter in the file.
