That was me on the Yahoo Group with the PAC problem - I still think that component of Gemini L4 is buggy, and am about to email Rene Goerlich with some data from last night.

I drift aligned (my first time - thanks to your website Roger!) - then did an 8 star alignment - Gemini reported I was off by -28' in azimuth and -20' in elevation - after a 50% or so correction with PAC the figures were A = -11 E = -34 - I'm sure that it gives elevation correction backwards - and had similar problems last week at home.

I'm going to stick to drift aligning I think! seems easier...... a pain, because PAC seems so elegant and simple.....
