Alignmaster

Does any one use the program "Alignmaster?" My neighbour has a huge hedge which blocks out the South pole and the blurb on "Alignmaster" seems to be the answer to a maidens prayer.
I have a Skywatcher EQ6Pro mount with a 150mm Skywatcher refractor mounted therupon. Other than the hedge to the south, I have the rest of the horizon to play with.
Regards,
Norm.

It works well if you have a reasonable horizon in my experience. You can add extra alignment stars by replacing the sterne.txt file with the one in this thread:
