Frank,
That was a pretty good run of observations until... :-0 Murphy never sleeps.
Over the years I've had a few issues causing wild intercepts. The worst was a loose horizon mirror frame on a C&P. A loose micrometer drum scale index error adjustment knob caused some havoc on more than one occasion also (See pics). Never had any index error troubles with my Tamaya Jupiter (35 years and counting).
