LX200 tracking
I'm having some problems with the tracking on my LX200. It just seems to drift away quite quickly from whichever oject I am viewing.
I haven't been using it long, so this is almost certainly due to the way I've set it up, which is causing it to track in the wrong direction. In particular, I think it must either be the site location or time setting, causing it to think it is viewing the stars from another part of the globe, or another part of the day.
Could this simply be caused bu a one-hour's difference if I haven't changed the time setting after daylight savings?
Regarding my current settings:
Site Location:
If I'm in Bondi (lat -33.888408, long 151.270334), then do I need to enter longitude as 208 degrees 44min?
Time setting:
Should this be set at -10 hours?
All suggestions appreciated.
