Re: Permannent pier polar alingment.
Hi,
fabulous result - glad it has worked so well.
I will suggest checking again in a month or two - depending on the size of the foundations of your pier and the soil they are built on, things can shift over time as the soil shrinks and expands. We have clay sub soil, which is notorious for contraction when dry and expansion when wet, so I have to re-check fairly regularly.
clear skies!

Hi,
Agreed.
I check every time my tracking goes wonky. (couple months apart).
This is/was the first time ever I got it perfect. Waited a few minutes and the errors showed 0000 !!!
SharpCap has made my life much easier. Went over 3 hours on Horse/Flame without a guide scope.

Hello,
I think that Robin should update his code so that when one succeeds in getting such a result, it should display "fabulous result" or some other easter eggish message!
