Just got my 10" LX200 today--the weather was perfect, but the damn raccoons
chased us in! (Anyone have any raccoon repellant?)

Anyway, how can I use the LX200 to view the moon and sun during the day? I
surely can't do a two star Alt-Az alignment. Will I have to use a wedge? Does
the RA motor track when in POLAR mode?

Any other tips would be appreciated.

I love the scope--works great right out of the box. I saw more objects tonight
in an hour than I have all month! Gotta like it!
