How does this work? -----Original Message----- From: NavList@fer3.com [mailto:NavList@fer3.com] On Behalf Of nsg21@hotmail.com Sent: Friday, March 20, 2009 9:57 AM To: NavList@fer3.com Subject: [NavList 7703] New compact backup CELNAV system > Date: Wed, Mar 18 2009 3:10 am > From: "Andres Ruiz" > * Annual curve of the Sun's declination. For Latitude calculation. > (pdf for > 2009) I would like to suggest an alternative to Sun's declination curve -- sun declination scale (see attachment). It takes less space and shows sun declination for 4 consequtive years, (2008-2011), but, I guess, it can be used long term too. The accuracy (~05') is not that great, but can be improved by splitting each scale into 4 pieces instead of 2. (At this stage scale needs work close to the ends. I have'nt figured out how to make it look good. Suggestions?) --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ Navigation List archive: www.fer3.com/arc To post, email NavList@fer3.com To , email NavList-@fer3.com -~----------~----~----~----~------~----~------~--~---
