Drift align

Hi Les

Yes my friend,from my experience you have alignment or guiding problems there. I have my own pictures of the exact same target that look reasonably similar to yours. Polar alignment by which ever method I tried in the early stages was not easy to digest ... that was until I came across a piece of literature that simplified it all. I have a link to it in my website that may help you as well (see below).

This procedure does work and is easy.

Good luck

Jeff
