The link below has a pretty decent write up on drift aligning, starting with the azimuth adjustment first where most people I have seen setting up seem to do the altitude adjustment first.

If you do the azimuth first per the link, then if you can't get down low near the horizon then at least you have gotten he azimuth right first so you will not have azimuth error turning up when you are trying to adjust the altitude.

Just waiting on the weather to fine up. Would you believe we are in the middle of summer and having rain, clouds and cold night.
