Hi Greg,
Thanks for the heads up on sky safari. Will look into that.
SkEYE - I downloaded a while back, yes it does Alt/Az.
I just haven't had a chance to test it extensively.
Alt/Az on Stellarium (on my laptop) was always "spot on" and helped me find DSO's easily, but as OP says, it is a pain running a laptop in parallel with an observing session. And the program often got buggy after the PC went to screen saver mode.
As usual, plenty of options, just looking to perfect a procedure that will work best for me.
I briefly tested the Push To (Indirect mode) option of SkEYE this week, it got close, but not as good as I'd like. But this is worth another attempt, in case it was due to "Carbon Error". I will have to study the user instructions more closely now that I have been through the process once.
