Stan,
I've been using a laser to collimate, but maybe that isn't accurate
enough. I think that I need to tweak it some by eye while looking at a
star.

Russell,
You probably already know but if you don't collimation is not the same
as a Newtonian. The image of the diagonal mirror is offset from center.
My telescope appears to have the correct collimation as shown in the
manual.
