    In my post of 8 August I concluded that the difference between the measured altitudes very nearly agreed with the measured distance, and then I used the measured altitudes as a basis for the distance calculation. It would have been more correct to use the measured distance as a basis, as this measurement was of better quality than the altitude measurements. The 0.2' discrepancy can be e.g. added to the stars raw altitude, making the calculated true distance become 31°9.6'. The UT is thus 33s later, i.e. 3h39m10s.
