Ok Trevor,

I'm not sure of the names, so I've attached a picture with the 4 stars indicated. This will be the orientation at about midnight (it will be inverted in the polar scope).

The Altitude scale is your lattitude in degrees. They are usually not very acurate though and your mount needs to be level for it to even be close. It will give you a rough guide only.

good luck
