Thanks David for the info, i will write this all down and study it, when looking through the EP. it can get confusing, especially for a novice like me.

However, by saying that it moves south or north, is this the same as down or up, or is the movement actually regarded as Nt and Sth.

By this i mean, if i were looking in the Reticle and the star moved in a downward direction, out the bottom of the reticle square, i would call this a northern direction, as it would be heading toward the lower end of the polar shaft which is pointed nth, and if it went out the top of the reticle, this would be a southern direction, as it would be heading toward the top end of the polar shaft which is facing the SCP.

Gee, now i have really confused myself, but would this be correct.

Thank You

Leon
