nods ... I can't seem to do a 3 star alignment here. Too many obsticles in the way. I did a 2 star tonight, told it to go to M83, and it's almost dead center in the cameras field. Mind you, on my initial 2 star alignment, I aligned the wrong star and that screwed everything for a good hour till I figured out what I'd done and aligned again

There is also some software called eq6mod, google it, it more or less replaces the handset data base and any planetary software that can talk to ascom drivers can talk to it which then controls the mount. It stores the alignment data and you can sync stars in it as you go making it more and more accurate.
