Hi Richard, to IceInSpace!

Get yourself a digital compass. I can't see the SCP from my location either, but using a compass with the magnetic deviation built in, just align the mount accurately as possible and then drift align for the ultimate accuracy.

Lol, it is funny to see an old thread woken up. When I read this and look at my questions .........

For anybody new reading this, just perservere like me and in the end drift alignment will be no big mystery, after a few months like me you will be able to do it and then you can look over all your old threads at your questions and have a good laugh
