not a happy first light for new C14

took my c14 out tonight. I went to do a 3 star alignment and none of the stars that i wanted to use were listed on the gemini 2 hand control. I decided to pick siruis but the telescope didnt even go anywhere near the star. I tried to line up my finderscope on a star and that was impossible to do. Everytime i lined up a bright star in the finderscope the star didnt show up in the main scope.Then a bunch of clouds decided to roll in and it started raining. So i didnt manage to even get the finderscope aligned. Maybe i shouldnt of bought this scope.
