Good idea ... I must do the same. I have written down things like clockwise/anti-clockwise, but glow-in-the-dark marker pen on the mount would be good, or sticker.

yeah, I had a thread going many months ago about that, and my attempts at using it. I gave up in the end, but only tried it 5 odd times I guess. I'm not sure what was going on - maybe it needs some tweaking for the southern hemisphere or something.

I also find the A and E numbers go up and down all over the place when I do 6 star alignments, but the pointing accuracy is always dead on, so I don't understand why it thinks some alignment points are so far out yet the pointing is so good.

So I tend to ignore the A and E numbers as I'm never sure if they really know what's going on.
