Well, Mitch, which rounding algorithms are you aware of? Sin(32d 07') = 0.53164497... and Sin(32d 43') = 0.54048508... So, rounded to 5 places after the decimal point, we would expect to see 0.53164 and 0.54049, using ANY rounding algorithm that I can possibly think of. What does Bowditch have?

The values given for 32-07 and 32-43 seem mutually exclusive using the rounding algorithms I'm aware of.
