I suggest you give up on the LNT and manually level &find north then 2 star align. I gave up using the LNT to find level and set north, I do that manually, then a 2 star align. Like you, I found the initial alignment pointing to be wanting. The LNT is often affected by nearby metal, for example a metal shed, pipes in the ground, anything metallic nearby. It should only necessary to recalibrate the sensors after a reset, or battery change in the LNT module. Part of the calibration routine for the LNT is to point to Sigma Octans (if you can find it). Once trained it shouldn't be necessary to retrain unless the handbox has been reset for some reason.
