Hello,
I have a Meade LX200GPS 8" with a SuperWedge. I recently got the wedge and have used it about 3 times. I find that polar alignment is pretty tough to do and there isnt very much information on how to do it in the Manual (or at least I cant find any). It takes me a good hour to get it all aligned and then do my 2 star alignment to get accurate GOTOs. Is there a quicker way to do this? I am only 17, and I cant always stay out all night with my scope because I have to get up early to go to school in the mornings. I need to do a polar alignment in order to do astrophotography, and that is why I baught my LX200. Im not too good at polar alignment, but I think I need to get better. Anyone got any tips for me?
Thanks,
Taylor
