i thought I'd make a new thread rather than cluttering my old one.
so this is what I do right?
make tripod dead level with spirit level
1) point mount exactly dead south according to magnetic compass
2) adjust elevation of scope to 34 degrees
3) manually position the south celestial pole or at least position octans in the viewfinder or polar finder of the eq6.
4) turn eq6 on and run the telescope alignment process
missing anything?
cheers
