I have figured out where I learned to use this notation, H.O. 214 uses
"a lamda" for assumed longitude. It also uses "delta" for the
declination, LHA, and latitude adjustments, although the normal use of
the table was to just do the "delta d" adjustment. The other adjustments
are only used if working from a D.R. The "a lambda" notation is
continued in H.O. 229.
