    Re: Bowditch sightreduction table (Ageton?)
    From: Mike Boersma

    Here is a link to an online printable version of HO211/ Ageton's tables: http://www.enlisted.info/field-manuals/fm-34-40-9-direction-finding-operations.shtml

    Note: the tables are found at Appendix B

    Note: The link is to an online collection of old US Army Field Manuals. This particular manual was for communications intercepts and the Ageton table was used for plotting the great circle route to a radio based communications source. 3 or more direction finding plots were used to generate a cocked hat to determine the geographic location of where the transmitter was located. An interesting use of Ageton's tables.
