LXD75 - Drive the train

I mean train the drive

Another question for the gurus with a Meade LXD75...if I train the drive, does it stick or do I need to redo it each time I turn on? I live in suburbia and there are no convenient distant objects to use to train the drive. So I pack up the gear in the car and drive a few blocks to find a view of something terrestial and obvious. But does the Autostar remember the training after I turn it off?

I've found the pointing accuracy less the perfect - I have finally (after much anguish) worked out how to drift align and this has made a big difference. To improve things, I'm also looking at aligning the axis on the mount - again, do I loose this when I turn off the Autostar?

Any tips would be great

Pete
