OK, OK..... we're working on it
The Coleman dunny tent is a reasonably rigid unit when erected, so turning it around to suit a change in longitude isn't a problem. The idea of using it (for me anyway) is so that I have somewhere I can quickly retreat to if a super-heavy dew is imminent or if it's going to start to spit rain. If the angles are suitable to be able to leave it in there, it's also pretty good at keeping the wind off.
Depending what type of scope mount you have (i.e. tripod vs. dob) I guess that you just have to suck and see. I get about 75 degrees out of mine before I have to move it outside. Zenith positioning will have to wait until I can figure a way to build a dedicated unit like the one jjjnettie has pointed out. Couldn't be hard....
