At first, only after all that folderol would it say "alignment successful". Now I'm getting more practised and I can cut out the 2-star step.

Thanks Geoff .... after the one star alignment, you say to slew back to home position. I didnt do that, I just went from Vega onto another star to do 2 star alignment.
So I go back to the SCP then do another star??
