    Re: Longhand Sight Reduction

    Hanno,

    The 8" circular slide rule is just good enough to perform the single multipying step of the Doniol haversine table sight reduction. Not good enough to do the classic cosine sine reductions by formula.

    Greg,
     
    please describe in detail how you use the Dietzgen  for sight reduction, would you please?
