Hi there,
I have purchased a NexStar 5SE telescope and I am having trouble aligning it. I have used both Sky Align and Auto 2 Star methods but, although it tells me alignment is successful, when I drive it to an object in its library it is always a fair way off.
I'm wondering if it is because of where I live. I'm at Victor Harbor in SA and I am inputting the coordinates for my location, but when it comes to the time zone the closest option is +9. But Sth Australia is +9.5 and there is no option for that.
So, my question is, when I input the time should I deduct half an hour from the actual time?
Thanks,
Roger
