Is something wrong with me German EQ mount
I have just set up my telescope on its German EQ mount and have a program telling me that Saturn is currently in the eastern sky with RA 12h 49m 39s and Dec -02 22' 13". Unfortunately at this setting the scope is actually pretty much parallel to the ground. I am in Adelaide and have the axis set to 34 degrees and the tripod is aligned correctly according to the articles I have read. I am a beginner and to me this makes no sense, Please any help would be greatly appreciated.
