Drift alignment ,star for checking west or east
Hi all
Me again.
When choosing the star to check if the mount is to far east or west , do you choose one that is facing south at about the elevation = to your latitude (33deg in my case ) or one directly right above your head +- 90 deg to the horizontal ?
I apologize if this is a stupid question , but I have retrieved conflicting information concerning this.
I have spend the last three evenings trying to sort out my polar alignment , as i can not see the south celestial pole and my view is extremely constricted by buildings and trees on all sides.
Thank you
Andre
