That's what I was finding to some degree. The model albeit with much smaller numbers of points was giving worse results than the drift alignment achieved.

I have two models actually. I did the original model in TheSky6 and then imported that data into TheSkyX to use the "Supermodel" function (the screen grab on my web site). I then mimicked the TSX supermodel in TS6 as best I could and THAT model says I'm at +123" elevation. The drift was fairly small too - about 7-8 arcsecs over 25 mins - easily guided out. If anything it is a small tweak of less than 1 arcmin that I need. Interestingly, both models agree on azimuth error. If the clouds would go away I could tinker some more but it's worth remembering too that it can be a diminishing returns argument to tinker too much. I think it's worth one more iteration though.
