You asked:
Also when setting up a 10" LX200, do I use true north or magnetic north?
You use a compass (however using the one mounted on LX bases is biased by
the steel bolt which attaches the scope to the tripod) to locate magnetic
north. Then look up the magnetic declination offset of you location to
determine how much to move and point the scope to "true" (geographic) north.
Hope this helps.
