I am with Stu.

I have built a platform (with holes for the dob base legs to sit in firmly) with leveling legs (plastic set of four-under $20 at Bunnings).
Find true north (I use Android app GPS Status) and align platform.
Level the platform.
Attach Dob base and scope.
Line up a known object.
Then any difference from known co-ords and setting circle becomes the adjustment factor for the rest of the night.

works for me
