Hi all,
Has anyone had a problem getting objects centered using the setting circles on the EM200 mount? I have excellent polar alignment and most recent RA and DEC. Typically I just do an off-set from bright stars but even so the objects I'm looking for are never in the eyepiece field, in fact seldom in the finder field. Short of getting the goto panel (an option) I'm not sure what to do. I almost think the dovetail does not line exactly on the mount's axis'. Any thoughts?
