Hello all,

 

I have just joined this forum and would like some advice please.

 

I have a C8 NGT and would like some advice on how to best polar align it, I have a polar scope, its the HEQ5 polar scope.

 

Also, how best to collimate, I have a cheshire eyepiece.

 

Any advice would be great as at present I have internet overload.

 

Thanks

 

Jeff
