Then download K3ccdtools V2
(You can use either the LPI or the ToUcam with it.)
You get to use it fully funtional for 30 or 35 days. It takes a bit of getting used to to learn it, but i wouldn't be without it now. When I first started to learn to drift align with a reticle it used to drive me nuts trying to work out which way to turn the azimuth. Especially as I needed to wait for so long when it was nearly there to see the drift. I find it a dream now using the ToUcam and K3 with the drift explorer. Unless its almost spot, on I can see any drift in a matter of second and adjust for it. And if I go the wrong way its also obvious in a few seconds. And because I'm working with the accuracy of electronically detected pixels rather than the old astigmatic eyes I can get much greter accuracy in polar alignment much more quickly.
From what I understand you can do the same thing with guidedog but it doesn't show you the dec response graphically only numerically. My personal preference is for visual aids, but that's just me. You might find the digital readout fine to use. Give each a go and see how it works out.
BTW have you done any wedge improvements? I found my 8" meade a pain to azimuth adjust 'cos of the binding between the wedge surface and the tripod top. I followed the advice in a previous post and placed a circle of teflon or acrylic between the two and it made the Azimuth adjustment much smoother with next to no snagging.
