Actually, I was surpised at how good the readings were. I know an expert can do much better, but I'm a complete beginner. Sorry if I gave the wrong impression. These readings had about the same error as star-star sights that I've done, which I find considerable easier (because I've been choosing easy stars, no doubt). I expected worse with these lunars but I was pleasantly surprised. Ken Muldrew.
