PHD when you don't have a DEC drive

Hello all

I am thinking I need to drift align my astrotrac...which only has RA drive of course

Having gotten lazy these days,any polar aligning I do is using PHD..you know the watch the Dx/dy graph routine and make adjustments to alt and as

My question is whether PHD will calibrate at all if there is no DEC drive?

I could test it quite easily of course..if there were no cloud...so i wondered if anyone can advise?

If this will work I need to buy a guide scope or something and I don't want to spend $100 if it is going to be a waste


Thanks in advance

Narayan
