re the solar noon: dooh! cool! so obvious... thanks!
thanks, adman, will do that once I have found the perfect spot and aligned with that solar-noon rule.

re the latitude and the missing scale on the mount (the little white arrow is there, though):
assuming it was a scale that had 0 at the zenith and 90 at level -
should I aim for 36 degrees measured from the level? or aim for 54 measured degrees from the level?

attached pics of 1. 36 degree angle measurement from the middle of the axis bolt (level);
2. mount

maybe one of you guys can post a pic of their adjusted southern hemisphere mount?
