The LX200 should be far better in AltAz than the ETX if everything is OK.
Drive training is moderately critical for aligning, but also star selection can have a big effect, esp if you use stars too low down.
Orthogonality is also a possible part of the mix, but only for gotos, not tracking.
What stars are you using to do yr aligns???
Early evening, using Achernar and Rigel Kent should always result in a good align.
