I've never suffered from the ever worsening error that you describe. After doing the first two star align, and then making an adjustment, you must do another one[using the same two stars], make another adjustment, and so on. If you are making adjustments in the correct direction it is
impossible for the error to increase, unless you make a huge adjustment , and come out the other side, so you end up with an error in the opposite direction. Are you all adjusting the right way? If it says Mel + 10" you should raise the elevation by that amount. If it says Maz +10" turn the mount clockwise that amount.[clockwise looking down onto the mount].
As I said in my previous post, it doesn't show the error, it shows the
adjustment required to remedy the error. The biggest pain is having to slightly slacken the mounting securing bolt to make each adjustment.
If you don't do that, you risk bending the adjusting screws. When doing
the last couple of adjustments I pop my illuminated reticle EP in, so I
know I'm centring the star accurately.
