Can anyone tell me why some of the "Eqn. of Time" entries in the Nautical Almanac are shaded and some are not? (A good example is the page for June 12, 13 and 14 where there's an example of both). I'm guessing that's related to the Equation of Time reversing sign (maybe the shaded entries are negative?), since the values seem to be decreasing up to June 13 and then increasing). My copy (2006 Commercial Edition) doesn't seem to have any info on that - seems like the government version used to have a much more in-depth explanation section on just about everything in the body of the Almanac, but it's been years since I've seen a copy so I could be remembering wrong on that. -- Thanks, GregR --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ To post to this group, send email to NavList@fer3.com To unsubscribe, send email to NavList-unsubscribe@fer3.com -~----------~----~----~----~------~----~------~--~---
