Hi All,
I am hoping this is a simple fix of something I've never had before. So recently I received my Skywatcher EQ3 back from a service I had done to it, should be as good as new. As I have tried it out tonight, I seem to be getting an issue where the mount can't seem to pin point it's location. I am using Astroberry Kstars/Ekos and when I slew to a star say Procyon it just points in the complete wrong direction, so I gave it a simple task of pointing to Polaris and plate solve Polaris, considering the mount is already pointing in park position at the NCP it should be simple for it, but looking at the coordinate error it just seems way way off, does anyone know why the mount doesn't seem to know what it is pointing at? Any help much appreciated.
