2020-02-19 Struggling to make scope slew properly

Something is not right. 2/18/2020

I did not have any problem before in scope slewing to right object.

But now, when I start on two star alignment, every slewing is way off confirmed, location, time, but no use.

. Ashish thinks it could be weight issue.

Weather was good

So, started by removing guide scope, camera, guide cam. Slewing was still bad but after two stars and couple of calibration stars, scope was going to right targets.

Also tried the polar scope first time. Helps a lot in polar alignment. Need a lamp on scope to show light when looking through polar scope.
