Skywatcher Polar Alignment

Hi Ron, not on the controller, on the Polar Finder software you suggested. I went with it anyway (the sky cleared sufficiently) as it seemed to be about opposite where Polaris was in Cartes Du Ciel and I realise now that my polar scope is not corrected ie it turns things upside down.

Thanks Ron and James. I must have got it set up reasonably well thanks to you as the Go To worked pretty accurately and found stuff I'd never have seen with that much Moon. It's certainly worth taking the time to set up properly in order to use the Go To. Just gotta learn some star names now!
