Hi Gonzothegreat!

Actually I have read your and Magnus Eriksen‘s Blog on how to build a box observatory quite extensively over the last years. Thanks for the documentation of your work. It is a great project and I had students of mine contribute some parts (Roof opening, motorised dust cover, ventilation and weather station).

The link you provided seems to explain how to precisely set a park position using the hand controller of the mount. I am not using the hand controller but only KStars/Ekos. I probably wasn‘t precise enough in my post. So I think my question is:

How do you define a park position where the telescope is pointing to the nothern horizon using KStars/Ekos.
