If you find you are having trouble finding a star low and close to the celestial equator in the east, increase your exposure time. I use a standard ToUcam 840 and don't have a problem finding a star at 1/25sec @ 5 fps. It doesn't need to be really bright, just as long as you can see it on the screen and K3 can select it.
