Don't forget you don't point the scope at the magnetic pole but at the true pole which in Sydney is at about 348 deg. This will help you a get a lot closer before you get serious with drifting.

I do this with my mount and sigma octans is always in the field of my polar scope.

Don't forget I am in Sydney and happy to help. PM me if you want to and don't give up.
