Dennis,
Alan Meehan dropped the mount around at about 6pm, I finished dinner and was out at 6.30. I had no idea how to set the rotten thing up so I pointed it to what I thought was the SCP and taped the lens to the dovetail bar and mounted it. it is a horrible handcontroller, and I had no idea how to align it. turned out OK but not great. that was my first time using a equatorial mount!
