Thanks Matt, I'm feeling fine so far.
Have to be careful of those all-nighters.
When I did "drift-align acording to Bert", I watched which crosshair corresponds to which adjustment control.
So when I'm pointing the scope straight up and am adjusting the azimuth I'll note which crosshair the star comes back to and ignore the other cross hair.
Same when I'm pointing the scope west, I'll watch which cross hair the star comes back to as I adjust the latitude adjuster, ignoring the other cross hair.
Soon you'll notice less and less movement as you adjust the star back to the centre on the corresponding cross hair.
By now it takes longer for the star to drift away.
When it doesn't drift any longer, you are aligned.
