Happy days
I had recaled in virgo, on M104 (should really use a star I know) and a subsequent goto to CenA put it close to centre, then after an hour or so of imaging and fiddling, I did a goto to the Bug nebula and it was very close to centre too

I am sure some PA fiddling will improve things but for what I do, ie normally no more than one target a night, it should be quite adequate.
