I will second that - I used mine last night for the first time, I have never had such stable guiding. I have a portable(ish - its a G11) setup and normally just carry and plonk it on a marked position from which I had drift aligned previously. Polemaster showed me how just how inaccurate this approach was and the coarse error correction was made very quickly. The fine adjustment was easy as well. Very happy. I will use this each session now as it is so fast to do and gives you positive, visual confirmation that you are aligned or, if not, how far off you are, drift takes much longer and requires interpretation, iteration and basically is a pita (but if I had a permanent setup I would still use it). I also have refraction correction turned on.
