Steve,
Just to point out that the Synscan PA routine doesn’t require a view of the Pole, just 2 stars either on the east side or 2 stars on the western side of the meridian ( closer to the Pole the better ) that meet the requirements in my attached procedure
Not sure if you have clear line of sight of the pole, if you do you can choose other methods to polar align using the polar scope for visual alignment or a device called Polemaster which replaces the polar scope for a camera ( $450 ) or Nina which is similar to Synscan or just stick with Synscan as it’s installed in your hand controller.
All methods require different levels of skill during iterations with fine adjustments
Cheers
Martin
