Hi Spike
A Telrad might help you too !
The red finder circles can be lined up with guide stars and you can superimpose the finder circles on a Map in a star chart program such as Cartes Du Ceil.
Most Galaxies are invisible to the naked eye !
Also make sure you are using a low power eyepeice for your initial search
Say a 32 or 40mm widefield.
Hope this helps.
